I think the poster means well, and good on him for that, but there needs to be more information if he wants to attract folks.

Basically you get a salary to work on your cool…
That said, in my opinion, the suspense, and really, the hard part, of being an entrepreneur is figuring out how to get a business to fly. Ideas and implementing them is the easy part. :-)
