Unless you are a real masochist, conducting business here is probably going to be an ongoing source of much discontent. Occasionally, when the pace of life is slower than usual, and I find myself staring at the reflection of the palm trees in the glass like surface of my pool, the entrepreneur in me contemplates a possibility or two.
Limited available resources and a lagging manufacturing sector dictate this to be a service oriented economy. Over my years here, if I was interested in earning some cash, I believe I have latched onto a concept that will work. I'm not interested in working so I spent some of my idle time fleshing out the details of my idea until I shook my head and grabbed another beer.
I believe to remain sane, and have any chance of being profitable for as long as the ride lasts and not end up being stuck with inventory, equipment and still having at least one shirt left to wear, small is the way to go.
Low initial capital investment
Low employee count as in none or one.
No owned permanent infrastructure.
Minimal equipment that is readily available for rent
Easy and flexible location opportunities
Scale-able - to be as busy or as greedy as you want and still have beach time everyday.
Minimum permits and Govt oversight - just pay your taxes and the occasional extra convenience fee.
The ability to easily relocate as often as becomes necessary.
Maybe someday, but probably not for me.
