For me it would have been easier NOT having a family business. As an only child (20 yrs ago) I somehow feel this absolute to make my parents proud even if it means sacrificing what I want, which I don't even know what that is. Thing is, I started the business with my father a couple years ago (still critical where I am needed to help run it) and and feeling more and more lost in life. Especially since I hate what I do. I dream of just leaving my life behind to experience one that I've never had. A life where I don't put my parents wishes for me first over the wishes for myself. In the business I have I would be set. Never have to worry about money or losing my job. As I get older I feel more and more lost and tried to make myself believe this is what I want. If I don't know myself, how do I know that this may actually be what I want or even what I don't want.
I have nothing holding me back, i.e. responsibilities, spouse/children, obligations or commitments except the fact that I would lose the relationship I have with my parents.

My short story may sound very sad and depressing, but reading this article helps me to realize that what I think I need to do is what I actually need to do.

The one business I finally settled on was Affiliate Marketing. If you are not familiar with what it is, it is where a person sells items on the Internet that he/she doesn't own. These come from other companies who have affiliiate programs. The person selling the product gets a per cent of the sale

Being retired, you get to have a lot of time on your hands. I did volunteer work, completed my Masters in Computer Science, read, watched TV, but wanted to do something to occupy my time, plus bring in income. Having just received my Masters in Computer Science, I wanted to take advantage of it, so I started looking on the internet for a computer based home business.

Hey, you have a really awesome blog. I really like it. Great advice here. I've got a friend who is involved in his family business. But doesn't like the whole thing. I can tell him about this. Thanks.

As an owner of a family run business myself, I think I have a good idea of where you are coming from. IT takes nerve to leave the family heritage (if there is any). I can only hope that one day my kids will be running my business successfully, and I think i would feel some hurt if any, if not all my children decided to go in different paths. However, they are my children and they should be happy. I have startedLos Angeles Locksmiths from the ground up, and hope that my kids will be able to live great lives from all the hard work I am putting into it.
