The Joys of Starting a small business
fiction
edward w pritchard
One day you wake from your confusion with a dashing idea of how to create wealth and personal activity and fulfillment. Ending your sloth, you have a fire in your soul to start a small business. First things first. In the beginning is financing and using your home equity line or credit card you race to the office supply store and buy a couple of nice pens, a personal planner and a hand held dictating machine. Next you drive around town for a few hours looking for office space, maybe the abandoned train depot; it's very scenic. Note business location on hand held dictating device. Then a trip to the library for market research followed by a trip to the drug store to buy a few magazines. One magazine about entrepreneurial enterprises and another concerning personal grooming, best look good at all times. By now very hungry a business lunch alone at our town's best restaurant. A couple of beers later, and after lunch; for market research you check the stock market and the price of gold, oil, and soy bean futures.
Next morning mood changed you strain to remember your business plan. Fire gone you study college brochures.
