I live in a small country town and I love scrapbooking. I also have 4 children, 3 at school & 1 at home. I do not have access to lots of money but would love to have my own business. Can anyone tell me what is involved in starting a business and how much money is needed??
and what is an “affiliate business?”

I am bored out of my mind. I work from 8-5 Monday thru Friday and when I get off work I want to do something extra with my life. I work paycheck to paycheck and can never afford a thing for me or my family. How can I start a small business and what would be a good little business for a small town that has all kinds of auto parts stores, mexican restaurants, taco stands, fast food restaurants and nothing else. We have a 3rd rate Wal Mart and that is about it. I have the worst credit it seems cause I can’t even borrow money on my life. Please help me and give me some ideas. Thank you.

The lifestyle you create depends on the small business that you create. It is important to find the best small business to start.
