Yup. Read the numerous threads in the business section on here.

Then using an excel spreadsheet, list ALL your start up costs, your fixed overheads and your variable overheads - then put a value against all of them - and don't be surprised if the of the on going costs total comes to over £5K per year.

Then you need to work out how much you want to earn, and don't forget you don;t work 52 weeks a year, 40 hours per week. Use 50 weeks, 4 days and 7 hours for starters!

Why are you getting it from the job centre? Do they give a lot of money interest free or something?

Yeahh for the first year you pay back £9 a month after that it is a very low interest because the lone is of the government up to 5.5k I think you can get more not sure. She said there's small grants you can get too and when I'm 24 there's another lone where o don't pay it back until I make over 20k a year
