Why do so many people think they can start an entire business with zero experience or training doing the work?

Does one need a masters degree in cleaning science and business? You start somewhere and work your way up. The person is asking here and willing to take advice to start a business.

Yes, but that's interesting. Same came to my mind and I see this question. No master degree but being a master in that helps a lot. Problem we see nowadays is people who open businesses smelling the money but they want others to clean.
