I'm just curious how one would go about getting started in opening a container shipping business.
Where are key low cost of entry shipping areas? Was thinking carribean or southeast asia but southeast asia gets robbed all the time.
What kind of boat should I use? Maximum volume or more efficiency? How's the fuel market right now?
What should I agree to ship? Are there limits on this sort of stuff?
How much money are we talking about in terms of entry cost?
Cheers.

> how much money to start?
Oh, just millions of dollars
OP, if you are interested in this shit either join the Navy or become a merchant marine. From there you can work yourself into the world you are seeking.

I think its cheap right now comparatively but that's cause China is slowing down and probably going to implode in a good ole fashioned communist internal slap down soon. There are a record vacant freighters and containers right now, better off getting into the container home biz. Real houses in my country are in bubble mode.

China owns the banks who make the loans and the compagnies who buy them. They'll control the bubble like the always do.
To OP, that shit is the equivalent to the space industry, no one just "starts" a business in that field.
