I’m considering getting a loan and starting a business, if you own a business or have knowledge in what goes into owning it i would like some advice. What things should i list in my business plan, what schooling should i take, and how much… Not sure exactly which type of business yet, but thinking more hospitatlity like a bar or restaraunt.
Appreciate anyone with experience and/or knowledge that has advice.

The SBA can help you with the business plan and with options for funding. Remember the SBA doesn’t give loans… they can co-sign to back you. This is a government agency created to help entrepreneurs create jobs and get revenue from taxes and such. I am pretty sure you’ll “click” with them at the website below:
Spend a lot of quality time on a) researching things that interest you and then b) your business plan…..or maybe you work in a field of interest , for someone who is successful, and get an education….and then, maybe write a business plan…….or travel the world. Good Luck!
In short, the best advice is to do your homework. If you feel you have everything, start again! Too many people I have encountered thought they had everything down to the bottom and found out a bit later they were short on a couple of other things.
Go to people that own different businesses and talk to them about business in general over a beer or a cup of tea should that do it for you. You actually can learn allot from someone in person!
Get your business plan together with actual facts and execute your plan. Be flexible but maintain performance. It is not always easy but it stays exciting. It is worth working for your own money at the end of the day rather to get a steady paycheck! Best of luck!
