I mean you can start a business without a business loan. I started my LLC with $50 and some cold calls.

The thing is, if I do that - I won't have a place to live afterwards. My rent is going up $45 in a few months. I currently make $36 an hour and they're talking about paying me more and putting me on salary.

I do want to be more involved but it really seems blocked off for regular people who have to have full time jobs. Without my full time job I'm pretty much fucked.

Starting a business involves a lot of risk. Some people dive in, some people (like me) start it as a side gig.

If it's your dream, work incessantly toward it and you'll get there.

oh yeah, its not really my dream lol

I'm more interested in just making changes in general but government of course stands in my way.
