Thanks again for the input, but this is getting a little embarrassing since I feel like the thread's become an analysis of me and my financial future!
Actually, it isn't.
Not really.
I think most of us have thought long and hard about
making a big corporate salary for seed money vs immediately bootstrapping,
even had to justify it to friends and families.
This has merely given us an opp to discuss it.
Because of the nature of this board,
most members, I believe, lean towards bootstrapping
but I've seen people be successful with both routes.
Jill, you talk about investing $15k a month.
Do you mind me asking what that is as a percent of total takehome?
Because when I tell folks that we invest with our J.O.B. cash,
they immediately think that 10% advisors throw around.
That isn't exactly working for seed money.
