An interesting topic and I'll be the first one to reply !

The topic ends in 'What business will you start?' . Now there are a few aspects that need to be considered -
  • One cannot be an entrepreneur without his/her will. Entrepreneurship as a career is entirely different from other careers. Its about having a vision, setting up goals and trying your best to achieve them.
  • I'd not take entrepreneurship as a career if I want to do Post Graduation (PG). I'd try to convince parents that I may not be successful as an entrepreneur and doing post graduation will actually help me achieve my dreams.
In short, I'd follow the path which I think is right.

This needs a second thought. Do you really need lot of money to start a business? From my personal experience, starting any venture needs - Financial Knowledge, a network and a strong inner desire to turn your dreams into reality. Common Sense is taken for granted. Study all the big businesses! How many of them really started with what we might call 'lot of money' ? Probably just a few of them.

What business to start is a question that can be only answered in one way - What business do you want to start? The answers should come from inside.

How to start a business can be taught. If you are clueless, I recommend reading books. Study how businesses got started and how they grew. Read 'The Google Story' if you ever get a chance. It should give you a clear idea. Find a mentor who will guide you.

That's how it is!
