Geek/Tech/Entrepreneur Stuff to do in PHX

Interesting.  I started doing business with the bank when I was about 12 and that was a very long time ago.

For the past 40 years of my life the banking system has been relatively free.  Don't get me started on the Federal Reserve.

Until recent the government only regulated the banks (not completely true).

I've never gotten a loan from the Government.  Would not know how.  Anytime the government gets involved in business it is bad.  Look at GM. 

The money will not come from the banks either.  Look at the housing market in Phoenix.  There is a recovery in process.  Houses get multiple bids.  Sure things are on the low end of the scale right now.  Where is the money coming from? Private investors.  We are in a recovery that the government had nothing to do with.

If you look to the government for your business investment you will be looking to them for what car you can drive and what food you can eat.  And if you do not eat right and exercise you will not get that great wait in line for 6 months health care.

Government is not your friend and it is not the answer.

You are very skilled and very talented.  Start your own gig from your living room or your spare bedroom.

Need ideas?  Get down to the plank. Hang out, come up with a 2 page business plan and make it happen.

It takes the average person something like 7 to 11 failures to find the success. 

Get out there and mix it up.  Make your own success.  What will you do?  Look in your heart - the answer is written there.  

The waves are crashing and your board is awaitin'.
