The first dilema is, how much you got to spend??? The second is finding a liquor license, typically people buy used liquor licneses and even those can run, if I remember correctly 75k-100k or soemthing like that. There are only a certain amounts of liquor licenses that are distributed by the governent every year or so. Then, LOCATION, LOCATION, LOCATION... you want a place that is a "hot spot" so you're going to have to pay big bucks for it, then you have to find your local liqor and wine distributor, because Bud and Miller just aren't going to cut it. Those are the easy finds....that should keep you busy for a little while....
