    Subscription website - pricepoint question

    WEB/DIGITAL 
    Here is a little tip whenever pricing anything online. Run a split test; as long as you have enough traffic and conversions running through your website it will give you a better answer than anyone can. Set up a few different pages each with a different pricepoint. You can even do different...

    Small Claims Court

    All payments were made through Paypal, dispute it with them. If you funded Paypal through your credit card you are in even better shape, give him a charge back. Don't waste your time in court. For future reference, always pay through credit card for anything you can.

    Negotiating vs. Low-Balling

    HOT! 
    Its unlikely the car salesmen would hesitate to burn you on a deal. Ethics aside, it has a lot to do with how interested you are in doing future business with the other party.

    Profitability of Video Gaming?

    If you are just playing a game, yourself, then your earnings should come out at or below minimum wage. The key is to be able to automate the system -- either through programming or having a "farm" of people sitting in China playing all day long. As for Second Life, I don't believe the story...

    My name & picture being deceptively used

    WEB/DIGITAL 
    Just like Jonlee posted, go with the DMCA notice. Don't even bother with a C&D. Send a DMCA notice to Google, and a notice to the individual's webhost. This will screw up their business, they will lose their Google traffic and probably have their site shut down until they can move it. A C&D...

    Internet Adult site?

    Ignoring everything else.. "This venture will be a very short time commitment" is generally not the right way to get started off. As for the adult side, right now things are tough. Theres money to be made, but you need to be at the absolute top of your game or we are talking making peanuts or...

    Book about recovering from business failure?

    How about MJ's story? I don't think you need a book about this, lots and lots of entrepreneurs have had numerous failures both before and after their initial successes.

    Any Suggestions for a reading?

    The Six Paragraph (Digital) Business Manifesto

    WEB/DIGITAL 
    I am working on a book about business theory in the internet & information age (with some title that will sound a lot more interesting than that); but, in case I get hit by a car tomorrow I am going to post the core concepts here. This is based on my own success as well as being friends with...

    Do you live off of your business(es) and/or investments?

    HOT! 
    Interesting discussion how people justify not starting a business and/or putting the business on low priority in order to maintain a current lifestyle/standard of living. From my own personal observations and experience, its a bit different. The people who focus on their own business and really...

    I found this very interesting, a lot to learn from such a quick read. Some guy decided to see what it was like to be homeless. Walked away from everything with just $25 in his pocket. http://www.csmonitor.com/2008/0211/p13s02-wmgn.htm
