The Best Home Based Business

What is the best home based business? This is a question that I am sure gets asked on forums and social networking sites throughout the web 1000s of times on a daily basis. What is the best home based business?It sounds like a simple question but the answer is far more complicated than the question. There are numerous factors that can influence the answer to that question. What is the definition of the best? Does the best mean the one that makes the most money, or the one that gives you the most free time, or the one that you can fit around your daily routine?If you are work from home mom, then you need a business that you can fit around the kids. Money is important to you but not as important as time. You need a business that fits in with school runs etc. If you are a young guy then money is probably more important to you than time. You don’t mind spending 16 hours a day on your home based business if you are earning 5k per week.So the best business home based business is only the best if it fits what the individual is looking for in a home based business. Another factor that needs to be taken into account is the cost to set up the business. Most home based businesses can be set up with 100s rather than 100s of pounds. Does the start up costs reflect the earning potential of the business? Is it true that the more you invest in your home based business the more money you are likely to make. I don’t think so, but a business that is started with a few 100 pounds is going to have limitations. At some point you are going to need to re invest more money to grow the business to the stage where it is making 1000s per week.I have started and been involved in many home based businesses, and the best one as far as I am concerned is currency trading, or Forex trading as most people know it. This is a home based business with relatively low start up costs, and it has the potential to make you a lot of money, and the hours are very flexible, so it is suitable for everyone. Its not an easy business to get into though and you have to spend a lot of time studying and learning how to trade correctly. You can do this on your own via the internet. There is lots of free information out there on Forex trading. Or if you want to fast track your learning you can employ a Forex mentor, or join a live trading room.
