First income
What I want to share is how good it feels to have done something for yourself. To have set out a course and started to at least get something back from it. Working in big companies or (so help you) for the government is safe, better paid, but has hardly ever been as satisfying.
There's a long way to go, and much risk to be taken, but the first money coming in is a special day.
If your thinking of setting up a small business then this is one of the milestones to look forward to.
(By the way I'm thinking of deleting this blog and just running my mostly political blog - if you see any great value in my spending more time on the business side then drop me a comment. Can't guarantee to oblige as time is in short supply - but I could perhaps just outline dilemmas etc when they occur.)
