Excellent description of businesses retirees can run.:
Whether you retire early or late, voluntarily or not, consider a business of your own. But what? To really get your creative juices flowing, read this book which discussed start-up costs, success potential, whether it can be run from home, how to market your wares or services, and where to get more information. For each possibility, there's a real life story about someone doing it.
Now you're retired; let's go to work for fun and profit.:
Are you retiring and want to start life over as a musician, a mystery writer, a candlemaker? Lisa Angowski Rogak, with David H. Bangs, Jr., has interviewed these and more to find out the pros and cons of being a clown, potter, herbalist, boatbuilder and ninety other some-odd retirement occupations, in 100 Best Retirement Businesses (Upstart, $15.95). All these people had a previous life, so they also have the perspective to see how difficult taking on a new, self-employed challenge might be.
