The
quickest way to become financially independent, says Venice, Florida-based
entrepreneur John J. O'Callaghan, is to start a small business of
your own.
"You
will have to work harder than you have ever worked before, and probably
for less money in the beginning. However," John says, "if you like
what you are doing, it will seem more like pleasure than work." If
possible, you should try to find a way to capitalize on your existing
knowledge and skills. As Benjamin Franklin once said, "The shoemaker
should stick to his last."
Many
people who dream of starting a business wait until they retire.
Then they buy a business, and find all they have done is exchange
money for work. Working ten or twelve hours a day, six or seven
days a week in a mom-and-pop operation, is not the best way to get
rich.
