THEN start your own buisness... I think jumping into it would be an unnessary risk... especially with it being your only real source of income... and not having any experience with it.

I'll tell ya right now... if you were to open a shop... I'd buy exclusively from you... (cept for emergancy purchases) all about help'n a friend out.



One thing to think about though is... this could be your chance to leave ND... I know you've got family and it's home... but after living litterally all over the world... trust me... your family will follow and home is a state of mind.

if your happy in ND... cool... if not... really give it some thought.
We both have grandparents who may/maynot be around much longer..... So I know I would like to stay here for them. And yes, I am a huge granddaddy's girl so leaving him would be hard..... Plus I have my horse, 2 cats, 2 bikes, hopefully a puppy soon...... So that's alot of crapt to move around. But we'll see.... i would love to move to Colorado.......

If you want to work year round , you gotta work on ATV and in your area proably snowmobiles..


Home really is a state of mind... no doubt about it
We both will have sales, marketing and management degrees so maybe..... I kindof know how to design websites and would love to deal with that and have my own business. So maybe. I think with all the spoiled, daddy's money posers here would would be golden. There's a shop like that for coffee can cars around here (aka rice rockets) and they do really good with daddy's money boys....... I agree with cutty. For sure would want to have a backup plan. Maybe keep both jobs I am at now as part-time, just in case.
