But you're willing to give up a portion of a multi million a year business for 4 figures? Puhlease.

Oh and as a previous poster mentioned, adding a after every sentence doesnt make your point, just looks like you're covering.
When I posted on GFY often was used all the time. It shows that I am laughing at you, no cover required.

As for the investor / partner deal, I already covered that way up at the top of this thread. There's really not much more to say on the matter and the guy I was talking to wasn't interested. Considering that nobody else has inquired I'm almost positive that it will be a solo operation for awhile.

Also, since you brought it up to make your point I will cover this as well. I know at least one person that prefers to work with someone else even if they don't have to. ME. I absolutely hate sitting at a desk pounding away online with nobody to discuss ideas with. When you have a partner with a vested interest there is at least one other person in the world that gives a shit about what you are doing.

I actually gave up 50% of a business venture to someone on GFY way back in 2003. Know what it cost them? ZERO. Hilariously enough there were about 100 people doing the same thing you are doing now, talking shit. While dozens of people chose to talk out of their ass one person wrote and asked me what was up, we made a ton of money and last I heard he is raking it in albeit on some things I wasn't willing to touch due to US laws. I know there are a bunch of dipshits here with the next big thing but that isn't me.

Edit: Since you're having so much fun in this thread here is the one people made fun of me for way back in 2003. It's much funnier than this one.
