Your post could easily read: "I've got a killer office space in an amazing skyscraper with catered organic sous vide lunches and a yoga room, but I don't have a business idea to put in this office space. Any ideas?"
The most important aspects of a business are: 1) what you do 2) how you do it. Things like team, capital, etc. are secondary and only matter once you have those two.
It's a bit like you said, "I have a fantastic transmission for a 1977 Jaguar XFT T-Type" but it turns out that car doesn't exist.
- rconti 9y agoExactly. There are smart people everywhere. If you have a good idea, you can find funding. (and anyway, many businesses are cheaper to bootstrap today than ever). If you don't have ideas, you don't have anything. I don't think you'd get a good reception saying "I want to get rich, should I become a neurosurgeon or an oncologist or a periodontist", and I don't see why this gets any better a reception. I get that you're not necessarily asking for business ideas JUST to become rich, there are all kinds of reasons to want to run a startup. I just can't really see what would cause one to put that particular cart before any horse whatsoever.
