Need figures on 1) Percentage of small business start-ups that fail
and 2) How much time and money is typically spent (i.e. wasted) before
they go under.

Would be ideal if you can give ALSO a list of several different small
biz "categories" (restaurant, retail store, service, etc) with figures
for each.
