lizabu and jbd are really spot on...
Many, many...many places need managers...the easiest way to get experience...although it won't be as rewarding as having your own place...is to manage somebody else's place. That's what I did, and that's another reason I'm only attending a cooking program...I don't need the business classes as I already have experience managing and can pick up more.
Work for a fast food restaurant or a place like boston market or subway and become a shift runner, then asst and then you can become GM rather quickly as not many people can handle the stress of the job or the responsibility. It's very hard and demanding work but it will teach you numerous things about the industry and about business and management.

You can seriously advance through all those positions within 6 months to a year depending on how hard you work and what you put into it. You may also find out that managing is not for you and you wish to just cook or be assistant manager somewhere.

once again..good luck.
