Blog Post: Why Would Anyone Consider Starting a Business NOW?

You may wonder why anyone would consider starting a business right now when all we hear about is the struggling economy, the layoffs, the huge national debt, the continuing gloom and doom coming from the media.  Well, I say this is the perfect time to separate the real entrepreneurs from the wanna-be entrepreneurs!  Seriously, why waste a perfectly good recession!?

A true entrepreneur is a calculated risk taker.  A true entrepreneur will see that now is an excellent time to start a business.  A business is an investment—just like an investment in the stock market.  A saavy investor will buy low and sell high.  A saavy entrepreneur should do the same!  Lease rates are lower, and more negotiable, than we have seen in a long time.  NOW is the best time to lock up a multi-year lease for a business, at a great rate, that will be a continued benefit for years to come.  Invest low, sell high!
