<p>*I posted this earlier in the wrong thread.</p>
<p>I started a business (2001-2004) that ultimately failed. No bankruptcy, just out of business. Would top schools weigh in heavily on the failure? or would they be interested enough in what I learned from the experience to look past it?</p>
<p>Company imported products by the container load from China to sell to dry cleaners in the DC metro area. 4-6 containers/month at a cost of $13,000-$20,000/container. 3 F/T employees, myself included, and a few temp guys I used to hire to help unload containers.</p>
<p>Also, what’s more favorable of the following two:</p>
<p>Work 40-46/week (entry level, no leadership role, a step or two above janitor)
Taekwondo 10/week (2nd dan)
Maintaining 4.0</p>
<p>or</p>
<p>Same as above but forgo work for more EC’s.</p>
<p>I’m not rich so I need a source of income. However, if EC’s are what’s gonna make-or-break the situation then I can find a way to survive.</p>
