I've always wanted to start up a food business too. But the only food service experience I have was being a server for a couple years and working at taco bell in high school..lol
I have a buddy who dropped a cool 2mil on a fancy fusion restaurant and it flopped:icon14:

Every so often, that's where my mind goes.

Start off doing what you have in mind while still working your normal 9-5 so you dont go homeless. Different type of stress, but much much more rewarding!

I am sitting on a culinary degree I never use. I discovered I hated standing in line for 12 hours a day making the same junk over and over again. lol. I love to experiment and mess around with different things. A food truck would fit that ensemble perfectly.

I'm not sure I can do aerospace auditing part time while working my FT job, but point is well taken ;)

Have you watched Chef with Jon Favreu? (sp?)

My husband is in the same boat but he chose retail instead of trying to go back to school. :rolleyes:

Not to be a joy kill but isn't opening up a restaurant and being successful like 20%?

Yeah it's pretty low. But leingod has food truck in mind. Not sure what the success rate is, but it does give you flexibility as far as location goes... and a TON less overhead!

Not surprising. Statistics show the majority of ‘retained’ people end up leaving within 6-12 months anyway.
