I just meant, if you have a spouse, then you need their support. If you don't have a spouse, I think you can still pull it off, but as I have never done a startup under those circumstances, any advice I'd give would be purely speculative.

I was on the edge of my seat for the entire 2nd leg vs. Barcelona, and the final was draining. It's "how" they won it that was traumatic.

Growing the startup to the point where I can do it full-time is my ultimate goal. I'll admit, it's not easy to stay focused at my day-job. It's not easy to stay focused anywhere for that matter. But I've had to learn to ignore the voice

>>Really? Almost half your revenue is $99 off 35 customers? Not sure how you got that. I'm not taking micropayments via Chargify. I don't think you understood me.

Let's disregard TV and radio, since we're talking about web startups. Of course it's possible to hit a homerun with a site like PlentyOfFish, but what are the chances YOU will be the guy to do it? There are always outliers in every set of
