Starting the Wrong Home Business

Friday November 6, 2009

True, most of us would love to be home all day. And, many of those who would love to be home would like to be independent, without a boss. So the soul searching goes on to decide on a business that you might like and could be successful at. Your choices during the time will have a great impact on how things turn out for you.

This was apparently the dream for one Montgomery County, Texas couple who started a business out of their trailer. In fact, the young couple was recently featured in this online Montgomery County News report. Seems the business they chose was to operate a home-based meth lab. Oops! Wrong business to start!

The piece reports that James and Melissa Jones of Splendora, TX were busted on multiple charges, including intent to manufacture a controlled substance (a first-degree felony), at the home they shared with their two children. It seems that the Jones residence allegedly contained an active methamphetamine lab.

If you decide to go into business for yourself so you can work from home, please be sure to choose a legal home based business! And never, never put those you love in danger because of it!
