What would you pay for?

What would you pay for?
Ok, so I recently got out of the military and while I have been working my job to its limits trying to make the most of it, I am quickly realizing that I do not like working for a boss, I like working for my clients. I'm also not a fan of mooching, so riding around on my family's dollar is absolutely out of the question, regardless of how well off they are. I simply refuse not to become my own man.
This being said, I need to come up with some business ideas that would flourish in today's market. I don't really have good credit so I could not get a big loan to open up a store just quite yet (although my family has enough properties to help me get a place at a discounted rate if said business grew) and my talents aren't extremely vast.
I can work photoshop, computers, know how to talk to people, write, and have had good results with privately tutoring high school students in algebra, etc. I would like to say that I have a good arsenal of random knowledge and abilities and enough common sense to put them to work given the spark to ignite the flame. I can also work with metal and cars, but have none of the equipment since exiting the military. I'm just so unsure of what the demand is out there at the moment?
So far the things I can think of:
-Designing funny/catchy t-shirts of some sort
-Logo design/consulting
-Tutoring on a larger scale
-Proof-reading/consulting for business memos going out to their clients
-A new air-intake for the S2000 market that would prevent heat-soak, hydro-lock, and be a short ram capable of power gains
All sort of half-ass ideas, but it's where I'm at. What exactly would you like to see a business come out with that is reasonably within reach and realistic for a younger guy that is willing to work his ass off to achieve a goal?
Thanks in advance for everyone who takes this seriously.

you should get a job at enterprise rent-a-car... they have an excellent corporate structure, and they give you the tools to be your own boss.

I don't think the local one is hiring.

Here's my idea for a lame T-shirt slogan. I had it the other day and googled it just to see if somebody makes one but could not find it.
in huge letters "God's Gift to Bitches"
If you use it, you owe me a free shirt for my $50 idea.
