Just a correction in the last sentence of the third to last paragraph(I tell the shop keeper you’ve charged me too much).

I was meaning to say:’ You’ve given me too much change’.

Thanks again Neil

There is so much to learn but very worth while. There is always something that will stick out as I browse through your post. If its going to allow me to fly like an eagle, then I'm here to learn. I went over to visit John Chow.com to grab some of his chow. He has a lot of good stuff. Another amazing entrepreneur. Its always a great priviledge to learn from "The" Gurus. How do you manage to answer so many comments. Do you have people working for you or do you answer all these comments all by yourself? Anyway who cares Neil. This is your business and you can do anything you like. I was just browsing through the above post. I will comment a bit at a time and come back to make more comments when I learn something that attracts my attention. I have noticed that Americans tend to sue people left, right and centre. Something I'm still trying to figure out. Either someone is hungry for cash or he has a real hard heart and just wants to pay someone back for wrong doing. Then again as I think seriously about what greedy people can do, it seems like you have to have your guard up at all times. I just hope your guard is up Neil at all times. There are wolves out there in this world. They come in sheeps clothing and they will take everything from you if they get the chance. I'm going to start delving myself in this SEO stuff beginners guide. I see this word all over the Internet. Its going to add another resource in my quiver of knowledge. I'm mindful of a thought I came across many years ago. Which goes something like this: 'What 'er Thou Art, Act Well Thy Part'. I suppose this can apply to everything associated with Internet Marketing and anything you do honestly in the Business Market Place. What ever you do Neil in th business world, always be honest with your fellowman. People will trust your character. I've learnt this many times. Its not worth an ounce to be dishonest no matter how little something this. Many times when I purchase something from a store and I get too much change back. I tell the shop keeper you've charged me too much. Anyway Neil, those are my thoughts. It wouldn't surprise me that you already have these character traits. Well I will sign off for now and come back later to this post. My wife is telling me to cook dinner for my sons. Have a great day Richard Hi Neil

Great resources and good to know about learning about legal and accounting issues BEFORE you start a business. A site I would recommend for raising Venture Capital is venturecapital.org. The site provides resources for startups and entrepreneurs raising money through private equity, vc's and angel investors. What makes it unique is they offer a mentoring program designed to guide entrepreneurs to present their business plan effectively, and even allows them to do so in front of a panel of seasoned investors who critique their plan.
