hi, i'm a freshman in high school and i'm looking for a career and the one that keeps coming to mind for me is owning my own hotel chain. i am currently taking business core but it is more toward the retail-type business careers. or whatever you wanna call it--anyways, what classes should i take and what should i read/study? i want to start now and work to it through high school so i can make my dream come true. please don't reply with any sarcastic "ask paris hilton" answers--100% serious answers please. (i do have a sense of humor, but i DO need an answer.) thanks so much!

the best class for you will be business finance, before you start any of your business you have to learn how to make money on your own and how to invest others money.
Hope you have a sucess business in feature

To start a hotel chain sounds nice but it would cost alot. It be more of stocks then you actually owning it. A motel maybe something to enter. But to say a hotel chain you may need about 3 million to plant foot on door. you will be competing against others, Start small work big, but to say your motel chain cant turn big is a lie, but good luck and study and get rich quick only works if your already rich, so work hard

Being realistic, you'd need many millions of dollars to start a hotel chain, even a fairly small one.
If you are interested in hotel management, and maybe someday owning a hotel of your own, possibly a franchise unit of a chain, you'll want to take college courses in the hospitality area, as well as business courses.
