I have been doing some research to find the top franchise opportunities because I have some money to invest.  Mutual funds, stocks and bonds just will not give the return on investment that I am looking for.  No, I need a business, but I just don’t have the time or patience to set it up.

The best part of franchises is that it is like buying a business with an instruction book – they tell you how to do everything.  No guesswork, no experimenting required.  That is exactly what I need – my busy life cannot handle any more excitement.

I had considered getting a Starbucks franchise (I love their coffee), but to my disappointment, they are not for sale.  So, I found a list of the fastest growing franchises and I am going to check them out.

I have to do a bit of due diligence before I make up my mind as to which one I should invest in.  I don’t want to rush into it – that is just not my style.
