From idea to replacing full-time salary in 4 months
This time next year on reddit:"From working my ass off 90 hours per week running a business that wouldn't scale to nice salary/benefits for 40 hours. I'm taking home the same net and I feel like I'm on vacation."I don't want to sound too snarky and I really admire OP's initiative and ability to make things happen, but this just doesn't smell right. It's easy to get excited by nice revenue in the beginning (as he should), but this new business:  - doesn't scale well
  - is notoriously difficult to get and keep good workers
  - is the first thing customers eliminate when times get tough
  - has minimal barriers to competition
  - is price sensitive
  - is difficult work
  - is almost 24/7 customer service
  - has major tax/liability/insurance issues
  - provides minor personal growth opportunity

It reminds me of growing up hearing the debate between 2 uncles at Grandma's every month. One ran his own grocery store and the other worked 9 to 5 for BigCo. Each thought the other had it made.Uncle A said, "You get to go home every night at 5, never work weekends, get benefits covered, and have a life.Uncle B said, "But you can grow your income as big as you want and you don't have to put up with an asshole boss."Both were right.OP is excited now, but I have a feeling that in about a year or so, he'll be feeling a lot like Uncle A.
