      Start a simpler kind of business - content, plug-in, service, e-commerce. Then see what business problems you encounter that aren’t served terribly well.

      I just posted a video with your question 3 days ago, this might help you.

      It’s certainly more crowded than before. But I don’t think that means it’s too late. Just because an idea has been done, doesn’t mean it can’t be done better for a group of people.

    Your statement "probably around $100k to $150k..." was the telling part of how you got into trouble. If you didn't know, you need the help of a business person.
