I want to start a business, first step?

I have no clue how money works Im financially uneducated af

Im thinking of attending accounting classes or something.
I have a friend who will be starting his own company with his partner and that inspired me af he told me to take those classes

I would love to have my own gym or supplement shop
I have some crazy ideas but of course like always you need money to start somewhere.

I learned business from simply working in a nail salon.

First up, you need a certain amount of capital. 50-300k.

Second, you need to know for SURE how much income you will be generating.

Without these two things, don't go into the business as it has a high probability of failure.

Bru,

you need to look up local, state, and federal resources....

Small Business Administration (SBA) partners with many educational institutions such as colleges and state economic development commissions. They can give you access to so many resources such as free education and access to extremely informed/successful small business owners.

There are so many recourses out there...
