5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent Reference!, November 1, 1999

This review is from: The 100 Best Businesses for the 21st Century (Paperback)

"The 100 Best Businesses for the 21st Century" is excellent! The book is simple and easy-to-read. But each of the businesses has been researched carefully and well-documented for follow-up work. We recommend this book for lots of folks - it's great for a second job, a career change, and retirees looking for additional income. According to the author, "corporate America has squeezed the enthusiasm out of its workers and more people are deciding to break ranks and be in control by starting their own business." "The 100 Best Businesses for the 21st Century" is a wonderful tool for those contemplating "breaking out." But we also suggest that every high school and 2-year college obtain copies of this book - It's THE BEST reference for future careers and a must-have for those counseling younger folks.

So you've decided you should start a business but aren't sure what kind? Reading this book can help you determine the best kind of business for you.

For each business listed, the authors provide a short description, an explanation of "why" it's a good pick, the skills necessary, the initial investment required, resources for more information and a brief dialog with even more information. This book will guide you to making a wise choice.

You can skim the choices listed in the table of contents and then read the details on those that sound most interesting. Or you can read all of them. Either way, you're sure to find some you'd never thought of and perhaps even eliminate some you'd been considering.
