    RL ....I know i'm being hard on you here but you're doing a very good job of coming up with all the reasons for why this just won't work.

    A cranky old woman that i used to work with once said " Ayuh ! Think thought and $hit hisself.

    It's kinda of a crude way of putting things but the basic idea is there. If all you're thinking about is how to make it not work then you'll never take that first step.

    To be honest, i just don't buy into the view that you've got to have a million dollars to start a business these days. I live in a place where well over 90 % of the new business startups fail within the first five years. People try to jump in whole hog with little or no idea of what they're doing and they fall on their face.

    IMHO ... it's better to start on a shoestring and patiently build your business over the years.

    The real value in doing it this way is in the "lessons learned" on the way up. You're not born knowing. Schooling can help, but for the most part you have to earn your understanding out there in the real world.
