Losing money in business is guaranteed like daylight...and I am not talking little money. At the end of it all what matters is you will make more money than you loose. You are constantly in search of the businesses that will work,and if you fail,hey,you grieve,wake up,learn from it and move on. Reading this forum I am encouraged. I am going through ankther business failure and the same time another business start up. In stock trading i have lost a lot of money but NETT have made more comparatively on the gains. Right there is the most peddled fallacy... that you have to lose money in business. You don't go into business to lose money. You go into business to make money, to enjoy the flexibility of working for yourself. If you are a perpetual failure in business, consider employment. [/quote All who dare go into business do it in the hope of making money. The fact is more than 90% of new businesses will fail, the US included. Does that mean you give up on business altogether, I don't think so. You survey another venture, if you are passionate about it, go ahead and explore it and learn from your past mistakes. Actually failing in business isn't really "failure" it is taking the lessons from your past ventures and not repeating them again.

Have you ever borrowed money, to close a business? Been there, done that. To avoid being auctioned.Went back to employment.
Strive not to be a success, but rather to be of value. –Albert Einstein.

If you are a perpetual failure in business, go get yourself employed then buy passive investments. I have relatives who refused to be employed, claim to be in business but keep on begging for food and rent every month. Life is short. Live passionately.

Looking for help/advice for a friend. Her story. She is came back from Europe and deposited 800k in the brown bank and borrowed against it and went in agriculture(growing melons)The agri loan was to be paid in one bullet payment upon sale of the melons.It did not work as planned.Melons she grew as planned and sales have been there but her costs seem high too.So the loan has not been paid and time is up. She is now at ground zero.How can she pick up? Her passion is agriculture and she has a 10 acre leased land. Love is beautiful and so are those who share it.With Love, Marriage is an amazing event in ones life time, the foundation of joy, happiness and success.

Her passion is agriculture and she has a 10 acre leased land. What are the components of the high costs? Once we know that we get to know if they are fixed costs or variable costs

Her passion is agriculture and she has a 10 acre leased land. What are the components of the high costs? Once we know that we get to know if they are fixed costs or variable costs They are abit of both Fixed costs include Wages at the farm,Irrigation of the plants,Rent for her sales store and other maintainance costs of the crop. Variable ones include transport to clients,brokers fees to mention but afew. My key concern right now is that she is flat on the ground.No money to go on and the bank will liquidate her FD. The land is there but seeds and other inputs for the next crop hakuna.What next..... Love is beautiful and so are those who share it.With Love, Marriage is an amazing event in ones life time, the foundation of joy, happiness and success.

I would advise her to find a way to clear that loan, then recollect herself so that she can be able to focus on her goal of farming. If she owns the land, that is already a big plus. If she has not done farming before, perhaps she should start small...lease out part of the land and farm on the other portion. Once she perfects her craft, then she can go big. In short, first step away from the pressure with the bank... Tired of mediocrity. Am going to the very top!

Anyway, I experimented growing melons, the fruits just after emerging from the flowers were attacked by fruit flies and the leaves developed powdery mildew. This fruit needs some experience before going commercial.

Investing the 800k would have been a better idea to start with then borrow to grow. Nevertheless all is not lost. try: 1. Restructure/ extend loan repayment period. the loan.

If all fails, liquidate the FD, pay loan and put balance on the working capital. Life is short. Live passionately.
