http://www.GenerateAbundanceOnline.com/?t=dm Many people have either started a home based business or are looking into starting one. The U.S. Census Bureau reports that 49% of the nation's businesses are operated out of the home. Also, 6-in-10 owners used their own money to start the business. According to Louis Kincannon, Census Bureau Director,"Home based businesses collectively generated a remarkable amount of economic activity, especially for women and minorities. Just released data also show most businesses are started by people and families who dig into their own pockets."

There are a number of reasons why people choose to start a home-based business. Some reasons include the following:

1. Dissatisfied with their present job situation.
2. Laid off or downsized by their employer.
3. A need to be home more with young children or aging parents.
4. A desire to be his or her own boss.

There are some necessary steps required in order to launch a home business.
