I have been a flooring subcontractor most of my life. Flooring lead me to a lot of. other handyman type projects. As I get older things like retirement and college for my kids. I have made alot of money but I have wasted it. I am a very motivated person. I'm trying to open a flooring store problem is I have no money for start up and I jusy had my collarbone removed. I have located a building in town here. it needs work. I'm trying to get ahold of the owner to see if we could work something out I fix his building in exchange for a little rent. My hopes are he will see potential and make a deal. I'm hoping by the time I pay rent my store will have a good customer base and word of mouth will travel and my business will flourish. My friends say you have to have money to start a buisness.
