I think they really just have to make sure they are doing something they really, really love. They have to make sure they have a plan, and they have to make sure they have enough money to get them through the first two years of their operations. This way, you don't have to worry about where you're going to get the money to survive the next month or two. Really, it's important; or else you're going to be depressed and you're going to give up early.

So a lot of people won't be able to have the right amount of money for the first two years. What should they do then?

Well, if you have the most incredible plan and it's laid out, and you think it's really, really a workable deal, get partners, get investors, and they can help you fund whatever kind of a business plan you have made up.
