I feel really bad for all of the people who have a life long dream of starting a small business and picked this year to finally take the plunge - - first years are hard enough as it is, but this really sucks

Have been working with a friend to help him open a new shop (financially and otherwise) it is needed in our town and will still be after this passes. Just moved our projected date to go operational from June 1st to July 1st and everyone involved is more than amicable. When I walked in to the complex managers office Monday morning, unannounced, I thought he was going to hug me when I just postponed rather than cancelling the contract.
Learned over the years with Hurricanes that knocked out entire local industries you have to keep moving forward as long as you can. Those who work hard, treat people right, and make it out the other side usually do quite well ....
