How to Start a Business in Liberia

Gas Station: Fill some jugs with gasoline. Buy a funnel. Sit by the side of the road.

Car Wash: Find a river near the road. Make a sign that says ‘Car Wash’. Buy a sponge; soap is optional.

Barber Shop: Buy a razor and find a chair. Set up shop near all the other people with razors and chairs.

Music Store: Obtain a wheelbarrow, a stereo with a speaker (the ones that look like megaphones), and some tapes. Tapes may be used or bootleg. Pile them in the wheelbarrow, tie the speaker to the wheelbarrow, and play tapes really loud while walking around Monrovia.
