That would depend on where you live and what markets are saturated or not. Your local ESC office or SBTDC show be able to help guide you to under serviced markets...

Looks like you got some good answers. The SBA.gov is a good start but I'd like to suggest that you first go to www.bizminer.com this site will assist you in assessing the risk and provide you with sound stats on various businesses. The second place I'd visit is www.entrepreneur.com this site has grass root business plans and loads of useful information. As for the SBA it generally offers the best financing for small business owners. However, planning and preparation is everything. So if you take the journey its worth the reward. Good luck on your venture.

put your money into savings then get a "small" loan against it for start-up purposes. Determine what business you want to get into, do your 5-year plan to see how much money you'd need, get your licenses, work from home and start small. Most businesses don't make a profit till they're in business 4-5 years. So you'll have to determine your needs and use opm.

Suggest you hold on to your money until you have found something that meets your requirement. Once it is spent.....Well: how long will it take to replace it?
Suggest you write a Mission Statement for your Life. Figure out who you are, what you want to accomplish and then plan steps to accomplish it.
There are business models (legit) that don't require vast amounts of money. They require Effort.
Good Luck!

Have a look at the list of Franchise businesses available in your area. These are tried and tested and you are unlikely to lose your shirt on any of them - unless you are an idiot.
