Very good advice Hal, PM'd you.

Joel, no worries. I haven't had a paycheck in over 3.5 years now. Let's see, I've:
Used to have savings, now have debt
Used to have 3 911s, now have 1
Used to have a collection of great, some rare, Porsche parts, now have basically none
Used to have a nice practical car, now have a true piece of junk 4Runner
Used to have a beautiful apartment, now I don't. Some people have a home office, I have an office home.
I live very very very frugally.

On how I keep Little Traveler going...I'm good at managing cash flow. I've convinced our suppliers to get paid on delivery or even Net 30, and we've done fairly well. Was almost profitable in 07, our first year.

in fact if I had been able to start Little Traveler fresh from my last career without the death of G9Girl sucking nearly every $ and a good deal of energy out of me, we'd be busting at the seams with actual vs. potential growth.


and yes, if there's any way to not have a partner, that's the way to go.
