100 Best Businesses to Start When You Don't Want to Work Hard Anymore

By Lisa Rogak
Many people in their 40s, 50s, and even 60s have yearned to start their own businesses for years, but family and other responsibilities prevented them from doing anything more than dreaming. For many of them, the time is now.
After a lifetime of work, these mid-life and retired would-be entrepreneurs are looking for businesses that don't require a huge investment of money or time. This book is divided into three sections:

Service businesses - adventure travel outfitter, educational consultant, personal chef, reunion planner, and more.
Retail businesses - classic car sales, antiques, gourmet food store, and more.
Product businesses - custom clothing designer, import business, herb farming, pet specialty manufacturer, and more.

In brief, easy-to-digest chapters, each business listed includes a concise description of the business, why it's perfect for a mid-life or retired person, skills and investment required, and where to find more information. 224 pages. July 2004.
