    Ever think of starting your own business? If you had a million dollars or so to start up a web based business, what would it be?

    If I had a million dollars I wouldn't need to start a business.

      If you had £500k, it'd be the smartest thing you could do.detritus2/5
      I'm too lazy. I think we all have 'that idea' we would love to try though. One day, maybe.Jnr_Madison3/5

    From the business blog of the guys at Worth1000: "The Crucial Startup Tips"

    Easy to say, "yeah, yeah, of course." More difficult to execute flawlessly.

    There's no money in web/graphic design.

    I'd start a hedge fund, if I didn't already own one. I'd start a new hedge fund.
