I am starting to market a new web-based subscription service which needs both producers to maintain their data and consumers of that data. It's creating a chicken/egg scenario sinc…

Why would you work if you don't need the money?

What profit is that?

They go into the Home for Burnt-out COBOL programmers.

Maybe your lack of passion isn't about the job.

And because it's luck, it shouldn't even be thought about. In fact, the word 'luck' shouldn't be used. A more correct term would be 'probability'. There will be a certain number of…

"Call me old-fashioned, but running a business that makes money is not the worst thing in the world." Are you kidding me? This is the whole point. Regardless of the funding, the go…
