- thinkcomp 16y agoGiven that I don't have to care for anyone, it's plenty to live on (even in Palo Alto) and have some left over.
- trustfundbaby 16y agoWhen you're running your own business you'll be surprised at how few expenses you have, especially if you don't have an office. I know for me, I absolutely must have $2000 to survive $2500-$3000 a month to be comfortable... anything over that is nice to have.
- mortenjorck 16y ago> When you're running your own business you'll be surprised at how few expenses you have That certainly sounds counterintuitive to me. What did you think would be a cash sink that wasn't? I'm guessing there were more things you thought you'd have to pay someone to do that you found weren't so painful to take care of yourself?
- trustfundbaby 16y agoyeah ... people think they need to get an office, a phone, fax machine, virtual assistant, whatever ... When its just you, or you and one other person, you can work from home, use skype (+rebtel if you do international remote work), direct calls to your phone ... get a cospace if you really have to have an office. Apart from taxes, there isn't that much overhead if you play it right.
