Week 4:

     This week gave me a unique opportunely to both look closer at my $100 challenge and the business I would like to own in the future.

     I was able to narrow down my $100 challenge decision to a parking lot painting enterprise. I will be able to get the paint at Home Depot for $5.27, I have the cardboard to make stencils at home and will then I will just need gas to drive between the small businesses. So I should come in far under the $20 we are allowed to spend to start.

     After I decided on my $100 challenge I then looked at what I would like to do for my “big idea” and I have been working on a business plan for a 3D printing service that I would run from my home since before this class even started and want to see if what I learn from this class can help me make some headway on it. I want it to be something that will provide for me completely and eventually one day become a business where I am not needed for it to run. That would be far in the future but I want to build it from day one, where I am moving in a direction where I will eventually not be needed for it to run.
