Buy an existing business.

If you have any cash saved up, this would be a way to go because:

- cash flow - existing customer base to talk to - product - market fit has happened (hopefully)

You'll get a crash course in everything after the 0 to 1 phase of the business.

And you'll get some energy from talking to customers and building for them.

Thanks, it's somewhat riskier than what I'd like at this point I'm afraid. I did something equivalent to that, and I told myself I'd find ways to avoid overextending financially.
