Has anyone here started their business?

Hi all,


I been wanting to start a new business (art startup) but I work crazy IB hours. Any tips on how you got started? Did you fund it yourself at first and then quit? Or did you go the angel investor side or incubators?


Thanks fam!

 

Not a business per se but I’ve got a card reader device from Square for £19, bought a cooler and a lot of water bottles and coca cola cans and will sell on the beach. 
 

Margins are pretty sweet, no tax. 

 

It’s a one-off payment and the reader is yours + 1.75% fee per transaction

Started several businesses, current one is a self-service car wash.
funded it myself, took most weekends for several months to start it.
