I don't believe that for a second. A good business is something that provides service that others need or is a good idea that is useful and put into practical use.

I'm just looking for ideas, that I haven't thought of.

When I started my lawn/landscape biz it wasn't a gut feeling it was hey I need some money and I have a lawn mower. When I started my floor cleaning biz it was by pure chance. I met a guy that needed someone to do the floor cleaning for a chain of stores. With-in a week I had bought a propane floor buffer and had the contract and knew enough to get me by and figured out the rest as I went on.

Selling porn on the internet happened by chance after clicking a webmaster link and realizing I could make money online. I barely knew anything about building websites at the time.

Nothing was gut feeling it was due to a need or pure chance.
