Feeling Confident in Starting your own Business

I just finished listening to "How to Start Your Own Business." I bought this book because I am about to open a dry cleaner, and so many things could go wrong. I wanted to get a few books that could help give me a heads-up about what will be coming my way regarding stuff I could not anticipate. This book is easy to read and understand. I appreciate all the simplified business jargon. I really needed the section on securing the start-up business funds. I have plenty of money, but having this helps you expect the unexpected. I guess the most beneficial subject covered in this book would be legal issues and time management. I highly recommend this book if you are starting a new business.
