The REAL middle ground could be something like a small business which doesn't require insane amounts of time to run, so that you can still raise your kids. You might not make it to a billion dollars, but boo hoo.
- cik2e 11y agoI'm at a growing startup of almost 100 employees. In my 2 years there I've repeatedly heard the CEO bash our partners' "lifestyle businesses" for their lack of ambition. These are companies of 20-30 people where the founders are pulling in 300-500k a year without working much more than 40 hours a week. Ironically, if our upside game flops our company would devolve to exactly the same thing. This is a fantastic middle ground as far as I'm concerned and I'll be very happy to take a stab at this myself after I feel that I've learned all I need to know from working for the man.

- bbcbasic 11y agoYes... that's why I flippantly mentioned flipping a house, which isn't a business as such but can be used to make money on the side where the money isn't linked to the time you spend.
