    The problem is, you are getting advice from people that will most likely not make it as entrepreneurs, especially those under 30. Pose your question to a successful surgeon - and ask him if he is kicking himself for not quitting medicine and selling widgets on Amazon.

    That is a great idea... I'm working on a temp assignment, running numbers on a portfolio of loans in a place called Destin. When I first looked at (the pictures) set up sheet, I thought it was St. Thomas or something. Holy Shxt - it looks like the Caribbean. And it's Cheap!!! Will report...

    Great thread! Sometimes we get in too deep into the the Architecture of things and don't step back and realize our successes and our failures are very similar. It's only our perspective that causes this bifurcation.

    The only thing worse than not getting it - is getting it and losing it. Capital preservation is just as important to the budding entrepreneur as it is the successful entrepreneur; yet it's usually only the successful ones who pay attention to it.

    The "Live and Work" hoteling model was tried and failed; like the one I am proposing. However, the "Work only" hoteling model (WeWork) is the one that is a huge success.

    It has, but not that well. Look at what the guy at Wework did. Took the Regus model, tweaked it - made it millennial/tech friendly, removed the partition walls, added beer and ping bong and boom - 5 year old company with an est. market cap north of 5B. This guy is now a real estate...

    Cool huh! Well OK, maybe not actually at the Starbucks - close. It think it's safe to say, there are a lot of Fastlaners moving to Scottsdale. Would you be willing to live-work in a incubator type dorm/faciilty; a concept similar to the "Wework" model - only you would "hotel" both your...
