Many inmates are afraid that they might not be able to find a steady job when they come home. Worried about their record standing in the way of employment, numerous prisoners chose to turn to self-employment. However, without the tools or knowledge, most businesses fail and this can lead to a person slipping back to the easy money of the negative past.

The authors of this book provide people looking to start business pages full of useable tools and ideas on how to make your business successful. They provide readers with online help services and written activities to help you along the way. The book is easy to read and follow.

Reading the book, the reader is also always challenged to reflect on our own thinking process to make sure that the business ownership is right for us.

For inmates, this book is great for offering sound business advice and delivering the information in a positive way. There is a lot of fear in risking to start something new. This book lowers that fear level of the unknown for the reader. Not only does this book teach us how to get our business off the ground, but how to properly manage the wealth once we get there. At the very least, this book provides inmates with a real chance of successful business ownership and that can lead to hop.
