I would try some anger management counseling.

(1/3)
>BUSINESS IDEA: Online seller. Buy on Ebay, Craigslist, garage sales, and from friends. Resell things on Amazon or to other people/friends.

>STARTUP COST: You'll need about $250-$500 to get a fair sized stock of 15+ items or so.

>SKILLS REQUIRED: BUYING: Understanding the true value of items and acquire extensive knowledge about a certain category. For me it's video games, DVD/BD, and textbooks. In other words research. Also the ability to haggle and having the upper-hand on all price talks with other people. Be friendly but at the same time assertive about your price. You are trying to make enough profit to make up for expenses involved with selling the item. SELLING: Predicting the final value of the item you bought within a certain range and given some fluctuation of the market between purchase and final sale. Learning what to price the item and sticking with it. Don't be a newfag by undercutting other sellers. Everyone will lose. You have less profit, the item may be driven down in value by other newfags undercutting so you can't make future profits selling the same item.

>TOOLS REQUIRED: A computer, an account with Ebay/Paypal, Amazon Marketplace, and the internet to find price charts.
