I have lost count on how many times I have told this story:
I have wanted my own bar & grill for the past seven years. My dad makes some seriously good ribs and since I have a little experience working at a bar and grill it makes me want to open one that much more. My father is also retiring at the beginning of next year and he's a workaholic so he'll need something to keep him occupied. There is an entrepreneur course at my community college and I think if I take that along with saving up money for the next five years or so I could open one up.
It doesn't have to be a bar, even. The way things look I might have to have it just be a place to get some good BBQ. There is a place like that right near my house, a seafood place, that was voted one of the best places to get seafood in NJ Monthly Magazine. I would be perfectly happy having a small place of my own grilling up BBQ for ten years or so. My dad likes the idea so I think it would be a good thing to have a family run place for a while. Then when I feel the time is right I'll sell it.
One of the things that makes me happy is cooking, and if I could do that in my own place for a few years, then I would be perfectly content.
