might have a little windfall coming, and have kinda been thinking for a while about a small business. there is a bar in the hood here that has closed after a very long time. i am making some inquiries about what happened.
i will say that i have little in my employment history to qualify me to own a business, except that i have a bunch of (grown or almost grown) kids that might be useful. or not. i am pretty much fun, and pretty funny. till you really get to know me, anyway.
i have the idea that running a bar is not all that hard. this place had a steady clientele afaik. someone who brought in some premium beers should be able to build it up. there is not much competition in the area.

thoughts?
