Anyone have any ideas on a small online business I could start?

[Caribou]

I'm looking for a way to make a little bit of money, and I also want to coach myself on developing business skills. I have been thinking about opening up a tiny server hosting service (I just need ideas on what games I could do it on). I'm already thinking about opening one up on OpenTTD and Minecraft, I would do it here but we already have enough. I've also been thinking about opening up a VPN hosting service.

I really would appreciate ideas, and what do you think is easier and more affordable to start? A hosting service for game servers or a VPN hosting service? Thanks!

Not a bad idea, I'm actually a great writer and enjoy doing it. The only problem is, I don't want to do anything illegal and help anyone cheat for anything.

find stuff on sale on specialty websites (instrument stores, etc.) and then sell it for normal price on ebay.
I once made $60 because this one website was selling these guitar foot switches for $1 a piece and I resold them for -$10 their original price at $30.

you'll need a decent server if you intent to host anything
web design is a possibility, and if you're good with art (any type, 3d, 2d, etc.) you can sell it

Well what do you think is easier to manage? A hosting service for an online game or your own VPN with private paid clients? I might start out with writing first, but where would I start? I'm also bad with visual arts.

It actually isn't a bad idea, but I wouldn't want to be known as someone who made a search engine just for the sole purpose of searching for X-rated videos. I'd rather have pride in what I make.
