While the plan seems well-thought-out, due to the simple truth that this business has been largely done before, and there doesn't seem to be anything truly unique about it, I wouldn't advise launching the business." (So long, stellar GPA...) Being different and unique seems to be highly regarded by folks that think about, write about, and teach business.
