what would be best for preparing for my own business?

Which one of the two paths do you think would be better for preparing for starting a business

1# I would get a job that pays a wage of $8.00 an hour and save my money for my small business.

I live with my dad so i don't have to worry about paying bills and he has plenty of cars i can drive and food and etc.

So anyway I would work 5 day a week bringing home $64 dollars a day, making $320.00 , bringing home $1280.00 a month. I would spend the $280 and save the $1000 into my saving account. I f i keep saving up money ( and my goal is to save money up for 4 years) , i would have $12,000.00 a year adding up to $48,000,00 in 4 years.

While i'm saving up money i would get a credit card so i can get a good credit score ( if you have a good credit score , it will increase your chances of getting business loan and investor etc). I would start small and buy a few outfits with the credit card and some food i think for about 6 months. Then i would get a car ( I know i said my dad has alot of cars, like 6 cars but i really need to buy something big with the credit card in order to build up my score) and pay it off , doing this for a year of paying the car bill should build up my credit score if i pay on time)

somewhere in the 4 years of saving money and building up credit score. I will think and create new ideas for my business and creating a effective business plan.when my 4 years are up i will start on my business.

thats the first plan i have , now here is the second one.

2# I would join the military ( navy or air force) and use the benefits to my advantage.

I don't have to worry about housing and etc if i live on base, I would save up my money has was described up top of the first plan and do the same thing i stated above with building up my credit score.

I would use the benefits and opportunities to go into college and get the extra pay and stuff. i could use the college benefits to learn managment or business to help me not only do well in business but to also increase my chances of getting a business loan and bank loan etc etc( 48,000 dollars saved up + good credit score+ business degree or whatever kind it is = bigger loan and better chances).

In the military the will teach you how to be a leader and such and such.

So what do you think ?

Do you like 1# or 2#?

tell me what would you do differently .?
