   Hi Everyone, we just launched Dane Arthur, a minimalist (brutalist?) real estate website that covers all areas of Minnesota & Wisconsin (19 MLS boards). The idea was to run in the opposite direction of everyone else. Mobile version will

   Go to a small bank. I'm a bootstrapper and I have lunch every couple of months with the owner/ceo of the bank we do business with. They have about 25 branches within their family (under 2 brands). Small banks still do business the

   If you are a VC backed startup, growth solves all of your problems (at this particular point in history). If you are a non-VC backed startup, sales/profit solve all of your problems. Either way, growth is a wonderful thing and I think

    I guess the irony of the pied piper leading a large group of children to their deaths was lost on Mr. Wilson.

    I hear what you're saying but you do not need to compete with SpaceX or Apple to make tens of millions of dollars. If you're bootstrapping, you should keep it simple and pick a smaller target.

    Yes, the interpreter says that and I found it strange. I don't speak Korean so I don't know if that's what the narrator said or meant (you can hear her in the background). How do you know this is a hoax and not real propagand

    I watched this last night and thought it was really good - but the entire time I couldn't help but think about this propaganda video put out by North Korea: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CJoQOQHQ8oA

    I can't speak to the support/service (which seems to be lacking here). I'm just saying they were, by far, the most reliable machines we bought/sold.

    I'm sorry to hear that you are having this problem. After buying/selling 10,000+ used laptops (every brand imaginable) over many years, I personally purchase and recommend only Toshiba laptops. Take it for what it's worth.

    To be fair, if all you want to do is get high, there's no reason to go to Colorado to do it. I think wine country is a pretty good analogy.

    My thinking is a little different than most of those who have commented...probably because I'm a bootstrapper. After reading all of these comments - my thought process goes like this: If the founders output from 11 years ago is worthle

    Very interesting story. I used to frequent Williams Pub in Uptown (the downstairs peanut bar) so it made the story a little more personal for me. My guess is that he will have a few offers for "full-time, permanent employment" as

    Author here. I wouldn't have made it through without my co-founder. A co-founder is great support during the bad times...and added responsibility all the time. If I don't give it 100% every day, his family feels it, and vice versa
