Thanks for the replies. I'm looking to start up in Texas. I'm really motivated to do this but the unknown is kinda scary especially with a young family. I know I can do all the field work with no problem, but actually getting out there and selling is the hard part. Being an employee is nice but it almost feels like being a career helper with no aspirations of becoming more or renting an apartment instead of investing in a home. I want to make money for my company and run it in a direction that makes sense. I've worked for the big companies and they sell imaginary services to their customers and some of the independents i'm amazed that they made it as far as they have. I guess its easier said than done. I won't really know until i'm in their shoes.
