Thats how Sir Alan Sugar started off pretty much! (I think) Buy products and sell them on for a profit. If I was you, I'd wait until the economy starts to pick up a bit, its better to start a business up whilst the economy starts to strengthen. IMO.

It may or may not work. But the idiot bankers told people to save their money not spend. So there will be less people wanting to spend money on games and shite. Even though spending money will get the economy flowing.

Yup! But it's too late now! The Tories and the banks have already put fear into people. But I'm going to leave it at that.

I've got a business idea you may wanna push towards. Manufacturing. Manufacturing has so much potential. I remember watching a document the other week and it said, when Britain had a strong economy, it was pretty much because of our manufacturing industry.
