Description:
I am looking to start up a local book store in a highly profitable are with little to no competition within a 20 mile radius. A year ago, my wife was diagnosed with Leukemia and I was forced to resign from a position in Iowa to come home to Omaha and take care of her, cutting our income in half. Unfortunately, with the decrease in my income and no prospect for a job at this time, we were forced to file for bankrupcty. My wife is well now and back to work, and I am now looking to open my own business, so I no longer need to rely on another for my income. I have previous experience successfully starting and running my own company and am currently looking for an investor willing to take a chance on me, even with my bad credit.
