An acquaintance of mine who owns a rapidly growing business in property gave me some advice a few months ago seeing as though i am a keen entrepreneur and at 22 i have a property website up a running. He told me that a vital part of becoming successful in business is to know everything about the sector first. He told me to find out what i want to do in terms of my own business, get a job doing just that, work your way up and learn the people and the trade. Then and only then once you have acquired capital, go it alone. It just seems that every successful business owner i speak to has already worked in their sector prior to working for themselves. Is this the case with most of you?

Would be interesting to know.

Good advice! Thank you. I had forgotten that my iMac didn't make your I's capital automatically!
