Even though the economy has shown some signs of life over the last month and a half, I feel it is safe to say we are still in or around the low-point of the economic cycle, the trough if you will. Many individuals are feeling that because things have gotten so bad, now may be a good time to ‘start over’. This starting over can mean many different things for many different people. For some it may mean making that jump from renting to buying due to historically low mortgage rates coupled with depressed home prices, or maybe it means purchasing that vacation home or rental property you have been thinking about. For others, this catharsis of the financial system may signal that it is time for a career change or maybe time to branch out and start your own business.
This topic really hits home with me personally because it was during the last bear market that I took that leap of faith and stepped out to start my own business. Fortunately, it has proven to have been a good decision. It was not a haphazard and hasty decision, however. It took a lot of patience, planning, and saving by both me and my wife to make sure that we would be able to, and could afford to, take this risk.
