My First Entrepreneurship Venture


20130908-184814.jpgI always had flair for entrepreneurship from my childhood days… My first entrepreneurship ride started when I was 12… I use to breed fish during my school days and sell them during summer vacation…

I brought 3 big paint barrels and bread fish… Mostly I bread White Molly, Red Molly and Black Molly… Total investment came to less than Rs.30…

By the time my exams were over there were 100’s of fish on each breed… I sold a pair for Re.2 and fish plants for Re1 and ended up making around 1500 bucks which was a big money for a the investment…

The next year I started breeding Fighter(A breed known for fighting)which breeds by laying eggs Rs.10… I experimented by cross breeding fishes…

  • White Molly + Black Molly gave me Chocolate Molly & White Molly with black dots…
  • Red Molly + Black Molly gave me Red Molly with Black Tail…

This time with lot of variety and by starting the breeding process a bit early, my revenue increased to Rs.6000/- the next year…

Finally I had to abandon this venture owing to my mothers pressure… But this was the foundation to my entrepreneurship and this experience helped me to perceive as an entrepreneur at a later stage…
