I Have a small amount of money (around £250) that i wish to invest into some sort of business. I am already in full-time employment and i love my job, but i only work 3weeks out of 5 weeks which is nice but presents 2 problems to me.
1) With long periods of time of I tend to spend money.
2) Because the way this type of shift works, it means that i am not off at the some time each month, and after spending several months looking around, most employers aren't interested.
Due to these problems I have been thinking about building a web based business which presents other problems. I can't hold stock due to Very small house (2up, 2down).
Im not interested in these Get paid to Click rubbish or form filling.
I have been thinking about what i could do for months now but my mind just goes blank. Maybe other out there might have some insight for me. Any sugestions would be grateful, Thanks.
Please NO stupid comments from those idiots that add 'Become a phone whore' eta (get a LIFE!)

Make money from your Hobby == you are already knowledgeable in that area, have contacts, may be a member of a club and already have some experience of buying & perhaps selling second-hand items
For example, maybe you play Golf - then trade in Golf clubs, monogrammed balls, scoring/handicap systems etc etc

Boy, do I hear you! I spent a year and a half researching home businesses and I looked at over 250 of them. There's some really sketchy stuff out there. But there's some real excellent opportunities, too. Here's what I know to be true.
1. Find a long term established company. Less than 10% of home based opportunities make it through their first year. Judge a company on it's track record.
2. Find a world class consumable product. It has to be consumable or you're just looking for new customers every month.
3. Learn the pay plan. Don't fall in love with the "hype" and jump in. Make sure you understand what you need to do to earn income first.
4. Find a mentor. You are under no obligation to sign anything with the first person you talk to. If you see a great opportunity, make sure you also establish a connection with a partner in that company that you know can teach and mentor you. No one can build a home business alone.
Email me if you have any questions. Glad to help out.

My name is Dione. I have a home based business affiliated with a 15 year old million dollar company. We market affordable health and dental coverage for the uninsured or underinsured. Our product is very much needed. There is no inventory to hold. You do need a computer and internet access to submit applications. You get paid daily, and there is a great opportunity for residual income. You can call me at 1-800-961-6910 and leave a message. I will call you right back. Also, check out my website.

That's a pretty broad question.
Almost any business you start wil require your involvement almost 24/7.
I would suggest that you first determine what you like to do, then look around for opportunities that fit into that.
I would think some sort of contract work might be suitable, but it would depend on the contacts you make.
Perhaps join a networking club for business once you've established what you want to do, then start asking for ideas there.

With your limitations , the best option will be to invest this money in a good Security like a Mutual-Fund , or a National Security Bond.
These will give you returns @ 10 to 12 % p.a., which could double your investments in about 8 to 9 years.
Second option could be to start your own small Trading-business of only one such item which is selleble in the general stores of your home-vicinity, may be at a slightly lesser margin.
Gradually you could reinvest the earnnings in the same business to increase your turnover and earn more.
thisway you will be able to earn reasonable profit within your limitations, safely and with your hardwork.

im sorry but with your tight budget you wont go far at all. that money you have will just pay for a website and you need to advertise on your site some sort of money making scheme to make you money.
why not look at being a part time driver for takeway restaurants or pizza places for extra cash. or a distributer. delivery driver. just more realistic ideas.
sorry to be honest with you, but to start your own business, you need to invest in more cash

specially because they don't seem financially waiting to enhance their source possession with the intention to advance production, it really is defined in economics as 'the fast run', i.e, the era of time in which a business enterprise won't be able to advance production by technique of hiring extra workers, procuring extra effectual factors, etc.
