i have $2,000 dollars, what small business should i start?

Sign/T-shirt business

buy a Roland GX24 sign cutter with the software,
George Knight heat press DK20S,
order blank yard signs & stakes, banners, from Grimco or N. Glantz,
order thermo film from Stahls to put on t-shirts or use thermo flex from One STroke or other vendor.

Now you are a sign maker and custom T-shirt maker. $30 per sign 2 sides one color with the stake, $20 or more per T-shirt. Don't do big orders of T-shirts this way.

Create yourself a yard sign and stick it out somewhere. Just start with the blank yard signs, then as you make money and get orders add the T-shirts and banners.

Sell Rada Knives is another thing, whole lot of selling though to make money.

What? Surely you cant be serious!!! Have you not heard, Judgment Day is May 21 (around the corner)
Keep your money-you may need it.............

You know what, I still cant believe, I seen a billboard saying that May 21st, its all over, I didnt have my camera, unreal..

Junk dealer. It's pretty profitable right now. Buy crap on Craigslist and resell it. Don't even need a showroom. Just a storage shed to keep it in until it's sold. I'm paying private school tuition that way and only devoting a few hours per week to it. It's not paying the normal bills, but I'm also not working full time at it, either.

Looks like the trading day just started up, does it usually drop significantly over the weekend like the EURUSD is showing?

usually if there is a small rally at the end of the trading week for the USD,

What was the other site? I think I missed something.

I believe it was, his posts on that forum

I feel that anything related to survival and end time prepping would be a sure bet. Not sure how you could start with only $2000, but this seems like a no brainer to me. You could probably make a fortune this week. lol

Here is a site in which you get paid to click ads.

[link to www.clixsense.com]

Many of you are on the web most of the day and you can see on your toolbar when an ad is available and just click on the ad and minimize it or whatever and continue looking at your doom sites and be credited a penny or two. Doesn't sound like alot but you can make a few bucks. If you have others sign up under your name than you get paid for them signing up and get paid for the clicks they make and get and get paid for any referrels they get.If you have some friends or have a way getting your site out there and a few people sign up you make make money doing nothing. It's not going most likely get you rich but it is just another supplement income you can have. You have the pontential making good money. The ads you click on are alot of get rich schemes but viewing them might give you an idea for your own business. Who knows. Worth a look at for sure.

Free members (Non-Premium members) will receive $2.00 if their direct referral upgrades to a Premium account. You will also receive 10% of revenues generated from your referrals' ad purchases.

Premium Members are paid affiliate commissions 5 levels deep!

PREMIUM MEMBERS – You are instantly paid $0.01 for each new referral. When one of your direct referrals upgrades their account to a Premium membership, you are instantly paid $2.00 for that member's upgrade. (You are also paid commissions on any ads that member clicks on) When that member refers a new member who upgrades to premium you are instantly paid a $1.00 override commission. You just got paid for doing NOTHING! Even better, that same scenario pays FIVE LEVELS DEEP! And now, level five referrals pay as much as your direct referrals: $2.00!!

Let's take a look at what happens if you were to refer only five new members to ClixSense.com and ONLY three of those members upgrade to a Premium account. We'll use the same scenario through all five levels:
Level Referrals Upgrades Commission
Yourself
One 5 3 $6.00
Two 25 15 $15.00
Three 125 75 $75.00
Four 625 375 $375.00
Five 3,125 1,875 $3,750.00
Totals 3,905 2,343 $4,221.00

Can you refer 5 new people per month?

Hmm my first 2 forex trade attempts with a demo account netted me 250$, not to bad.. course i then lost it all by fooling around testing stuff, but still, nice beginner's luck

The acquisition of capital is the most difficult part of the road to success. You have $2000, Don't Lose Your Money!

What hobbies or interests do you have?
What markets are you acquainted with?
Can you judge merchandise quality and condition?
Do you KNOW where people with same interests meet to buy & sell?

Buying options is an EXTREMELY Risky speculation, trading futures is suicide to your capital. 90% of all who do so lose money. If you Buy goods low and sell at a profit, you can make money and have property of value rather than paper statements showing you where your money went and how much you lost to commissions.

Buy direct from individuals, buy used mdse in Like New condition or don't buy. Offer 25% less than your initial expected purchase price. Don't buy unless you Know you can double your money. Consider trading with other sellers if you can make some money and obtain gear/mdse you know will sell for more than you traded for.

easiest thing i've ever done. absolutely nothing to sell.

OK!, I only wasted time reading up to page 3. This is something you will KA-CHING big on.

I do web and VB6 programming. I made some VB projects and gave them away for free. Now you may not be into that sort of thing and you have some kind of deficit disorder and can't handle doing shit that takes time, detail and patients, besides brain power. Ya don't need any a that.

Here's what ya do. You do nothing. thats the beauty of this proposal. See, you have cash in hand, you wanna do something with it to increase its spending value but your a dummy. Thats fine. Here's the friggin secret.

You pinch your 2k and make it stretch for that winning strategy waiting to happen.

Go on a place called [link to www.freelancer.com]

Pay some pakistani or afghan or israeli or indian from india to program some good shit for you.

What kind of good shit. Well I'll tell ya.

DO FUCKING APPS FOR THE DROID MARKET.

Post the apps for sale on the market place and relax as your KA-CHING goes verticle.

Thank me later with some angel funding for some shit I programmed and want to distribute. Second thought, I'll do it myself.

I use to drive a semi truck for UPS. Long story short, I started a mobile detailing business. It cost me about $2400.00 to get started. I already had a full size truck. Here is what I bought:

- 4x6 trailer from Lowe's ($625.00)
- 4000 Watt generator from Lowe's ($450.00)
- 2,400 psi pressure washer from Lowe's ($300.00)
- 115 gallon water tank from Detail King ($285.00)
- Detail supplies ($350.00)
- Design an ad at home and make copies at Office Max + mailing ($400.00)

[link to www.detailking.com]

Here is how I quit my $65,000.00 job in less than 60 days to detail 3 cars a day 5-7 days a week. Make up your ads...then, get in the phone books of all the cities around your area (for me, in NW Indiana, I used 3 counties = about 50 mile radius) send out your ad to all of the doctors and lawyers in those phone books. They have the disposable income to spend on this type service. I literally hit the ground running 1 week later. I only worked a 4 day week at UPS (Sunday night thru Wednesday night/Thursday morning) so I detailed cars all day Fri/Sat./Sun. I charge $200-$250 depending on the size of the vehicle + $10-$30 extra if the vehicle is really messy. On average, I make $635.00/day - working about a 10 hour day. Doctors and lawyers love the fact that I come to their offices and detail their cars.

This business is a bit more then $2000.00 to start, but I turned $2,400.00 in to a $100,000.00+/annual income first year. If you live in a warmer climate, you could easily make $150,000.00 as my business slows a bit in the winter.

EXCELLENT

Now here's part two for your further success.

Do new and used car dealership accounts. KA-CHING.

Your price reflects using their water. Brilliant.

Well, with just a week to go until the rapture I guess it doesn't mater at this point. When I wake up tomorrow it's time to live like I was dying.... I have about 30K in the bank and I'm going to party like it's 1999!!!!

I tried doing that for $$$ during the winter months the first year I started...problem is, most dealerships have "porters" who do all the car washing for them....for about $7-$8/hour. Most dealerships do not care about spending the $$$ to have their cars detailed (professionally)...and the ones that do...already have someone who does it for them. From what my research has shown, the guys detailing the cars at dealerships got the accounts by being the lowest bidder (and I mean LOW)...I don't play that game. I have never figured out why people want to wake up every morning and work for as close to free as they can all day long???

some of the network marketing things or ok for people who don't have a lot of cash but a lot of time.

Tupperware, Amway, Mary kay, and many others.

I started MonaVie. i like the products.

small business? Take that 2K and buy survival food and supplies and get to the mountains!!!!!

Please God, no. Not this. Anything but this.

FF2G covers both of these. lol If you have ever been in MLM then this should come easy. This is a product you can really feel good about promoting. And unlike many MLM companies we sell below retail. And for a one time enrollment fee of $8.50 it can't be beat. This is by far the easiest way to build your long term food storage as well as help others to do the same. Win Win! To the guy in MonaVie, just share this with your downline as an additional source of income and before you know it you will have plenty of food on hand for when the SHTF.

i saw that ff2g site and it was very interesting; Monavie is getting into the weight loss area, as everybody who looks knows, that is a billion dollar industry, and they are poised to take some of it.
