      <description>Thanks for thie info.  When I started my business, I used the bootstrap method. (&lt;a target="_blank" href="http://smallbusinessonlinecommunity.bankofamerica.com/interstitial-page.jspa?businessUrl=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.bootstrapbusiness.org%2F&amp;referrerUrl=http%3A%2F%2Fsmallbusinessonlinecommunity.bankofamerica.com"&gt;http://www.bootstrapbusiness.org/&lt;/a&gt;)&lt;br /&gt;
It was tough, but it has turned out pretty successful, and I knew that I wasn't going to get into debt, and that I had already set how much I was willing to lose.</description>

      <description>Is this true?  If so, I would love more information because I want to buy an existing laundromat and begin my career from there.  I have looked at a few laundromats in my county and found all the information I need to begin, including start up capital, and expenses.  I have a semi-finished business plan and would appreciate any information on this buy a business with $0 down.  I don't have much to start it up myself.   Thank you.</description>

      <description>&lt;b&gt;i was searching online and i reached a place and :oh! yes: the time has come that you can earn even 400-3000$ without having any website and the amazing thing is that this system is free to join &lt;a target="_blank" href="http://smallbusinessonlinecommunity.bankofamerica.com/interstitial-page.jspa?businessUrl=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.clicknearn.net%2F2633-53.html&amp;referrerUrl=http%3A%2F%2Fsmallbusinessonlinecommunity.bankofamerica.com"&gt;http://www.clicknearn.net/2633-53.html&lt;/a&gt; and the condition is this that you can join more than one money making program and there you can also find the full job list to increase your income with in seconds.&lt;/b&gt;</description>

      <description>here are my 2 cents in thoughts....&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I am such a virtual person I do not recommend in investing in bricks n mortar businesses.  &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
If you want to sell a product... find a supplier and be a re-seller, but don't stock the inventory, just sell the inventory as a drop shipper. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Become an affiliate marketer - go to clickbank.com and find thousands of online products to sell for others&lt;br /&gt;
check out affiliateclassroom.com for a great monthly newsletter with great ideas&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
and finally add Google AdSense to your website and get paid for people clicking on links.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Good luck!</description>

      <description>I actually just ran into this topic trolling around the internet and figured...what the hell, might as well give it a shot!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I am currently an Executive Vice President at a company that is on the brink of collapse.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I have given my soul to this company and have given money out of my own pocket trying to save it...not just me but others also. I am just talking about myself.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Right now, I have 20 million shares worth practially nothing. And the business is borderline Chapter 7. I have never worked harder, sacrificed more, taken cuts in pay...you name it, I did it to try and keep this place afloat. Its literally the best job I ever had and that is why I did so much to try and save it the last two years.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In April, I finally threw in the towel. I have no more to give. And I told my wife I would never go all out for a company unless its something I own. Which brings me to this topic.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
How can I buy a business with no money down? That sounds insane to me especially with the way things are in this country right now.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I have had my eye on this business and its up for sale for about 550k. No way I can afford this since I have given so much of my savings to my present company. I currently just have about 12k saved.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
But this business is a gold mine. It generates great revenues. Its pretty automated. I just have to do some marketing and keep an eye on the employees. Thats it. The fundamentals of that business are quite strong, I must say.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
How can I go about doing this, Adducent. Is it really possible? I have IMPECCABLE references that I can submit to anyone that can vouch for my character, integrity, work ethic...whatever. They are all from C-Level people in the US and in Switzerland. But that and a bag of beans will get you squat at a bank when they run your credit and see that in the last 18 months, you basically ruined your credit...even though its because of my paycuts that I just had to make necessary adjustments so that I can hold out hope things would turn around at the firm. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I would quit tomorrow if I knew I can run something of my own. That business can be my ticket back and I am pretty sure it can be the stepping stone to other bigger and better things. First things first.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
 I don't think I can ever sell my soul to corporate America again. It has to be about me going forward. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Any feedback on this would be greatly appreciated.</description>

      <description>&lt;br /&gt;
There are several ways to minimize or even eliminate using using your own money to buy a business but each deal has to be evaluated to see what might be applicable to help accomplish that.  Theres a lot of questions that would need answers before I could give you an idea if this deal has any possibilities or not.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
If you get a chance, check out the articles on buying a business at my website &lt;a target="_blank" href="http://smallbusinessonlinecommunity.bankofamerica.com/interstitial-page.jspa?businessUrl=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.adducent.tv%2F.&amp;referrerUrl=http%3A%2F%2Fsmallbusinessonlinecommunity.bankofamerica.com"&gt;http://www.adducent.tv/.&lt;/a&gt;  One specifically that is a good starting point can be found at:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;a target="_blank" href="http://smallbusinessonlinecommunity.bankofamerica.com/interstitial-page.jspa?businessUrl=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.adducent.tv%2Farticles-news%2F102-first-steps-to-buy-a-good-business&amp;referrerUrl=http%3A%2F%2Fsmallbusinessonlinecommunity.bankofamerica.com"&gt;http://www.adducent.tv/articles-news/102-first-steps-to-buy-a-good-business&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Buying a business needs to start with determining if its the right business for you to try and buy.  After you read the above article; post here some more info on the business or feel free to email me directly via my website and I can give you some specific feedback on it.&lt;br /&gt;
