My oldest daughter did not have much of an academic temperament, and when she graduated from High School she said she wanted to go to Cosmetology School. I was not really excited about this and had visions of her working long hours in a mall hair salon for minimum wage.
I was wrong. She has spent the last 17 years working in a rather upscale salon, and makes a really good living.
The owner of the salon is closing the business. My daughter gathered up all of her client information, found a space and is going into business for herself. She has a tax number, and has organized as an LLC and will open her own business in three weeks.
