Do you think I've never thought of that? What has stopped me so far is
that I don't trust myself as far as I can throw me (and if you've ever
tried throwing yourself, you know how far that is :) with doing things on
time (like bookkeeping and opening for business, for example).

There's always the option of finding a partner that's a wiz with numbers
and profit margins and whatnot. Of course partnerships can be a pain in
the ass. If you ever do it find a partner that's professional, and not a
friend (at least not to start with). That way you'll start off with a
business relationship without any fears of hurting a friendship.
