I am looking for some guidance and mentorship regarding becoming a Veteran entrepreneur. I have a few time tested ideas, some demographic metrics, working capital and potential investors. I know this would be a calculated leap for me and my family, as I have always worked for someone else. Ideas for and against taking a leap greatly appreciated.

There is much to say on this topic -- though one thing I would point out is that it is important to be clear on how your business can make money and eventually become sustainable. For example, who is going to be willing to pay for your good or service, and how much, and what are you basing that assumption on?

I forgot to mention that you have to register to be considered a veteran owned small business (important if you want government contracts) and there is also information about that on the sba website. If you get stuck you can always call or stop in your local sba.
