The friday club session

Young startup guys and gals at deja vu asked a bunch of interesting questions:

1. Do you do it for money?

Ans: No. I do it because I think I can do a better job if I do it my way.

2. How do you handle the risk of not having a paycheck or even failing?

Ans: Impulsive decisions that don't give me time to really think through things when I jump in. All I see is the promise of the idea and worry about irrelevant details like money later.

3. How do you survive?

Ans: Support system and the invisible balancing act that my friends and partners at work engage in to ensure that I don't put all of us out in the street, in jail on in bankruptcy court.

4. On fate and destiny and God?

Ans: Can't live without a belief in some higher being out there looking after me to whom I can pray at the end of the month to do something about payroll.
