Why To Not Not Start a Startup (company)

Here's an interesting article from a venture capitalist about reasons, real and perceived, why people don't ask him for his money:

1. Too young
2. Too inexperienced
3. Not determined enough
4. Not smart enough
5. Know nothing about business
6. No cofounder
7. No idea
8. No room for more startups
9. Family to support
10. Independently wealthy
11. Not ready for commitment
12. Need for structure
13. Fear of uncertainty
14. Don't realize what you're avoiding
15. Parents want you to be a doctor
16. A job is the default

My reasons are #s 7 & 9. Anybody have a need for a computer program that they haven't filled yet?

What are your reasons for going to an office or a cube or other employment?

Sacrilege!

You see, Saturn has this really weird atmospheric pattern around its North Pole. It's a hexagon and its been there a long time.

Be careful what you steal...

And who you hire to do your websites... If you're on anybody's bad side.

Do you like "Heavy Metal?"

You must be bright and talented.

They say so here.

For those of you with an interest in Congressional spending...

California US Representative John Campbell, a frequent guest on the Hugh Hewitt radio show, has started blogging at the address above.

I'll save you the trouble of my description and give you his:

Welcome to the Green Eyeshade Blog. I'm John Campbell, Congressman from the 48th District in California. I am also a Certified Public Accountant. Hence the title of this blog. For those of you who don't know, green eyeshades were the headwear of choice for accountants in the late 19th and early 20th centuries.

But this blog is not for fashion conscious bean counters. It is for anyone who thinks that federal taxes and spending are too high, the federal government is too big and the deficit needs to go away.
