Successful Business during Great Depression
According to the recent news on BBC, jobless rate had rose over 10%. In October of 09, the jobless rate was 10.2% which is the highest since April 1983. Forecasting the future, there is still a possibility of more jobloss. Today 70% of our economy is based on consumer spending, if these consumers which includes me and you does not have a job, how are we going to spend? how is 70% going to be contributed to the economy? In other words, what are we going to do if we lose our job? I agree money cannot buy all the happiness, but money certainly buys the necessities of our lives. In reality, we cannot survive without money.
I have a question for you; can you give me a 100% guarantee of you having a job until one year from now, one month, one week from today or even tomorrow??? if you are willing to say yes with a 100% confidence then I must salute you, but I am sure you are going to answer this question in one word, NO and that's fine. "Truths are bitter but never hidden". I am saying it flat out; I cannot guarantee you of me having a job tomorrow. That is why I chose not only 100% but 200% guaranteed way of having money all my life. No this is NOT a scam, it's for real, and it's a real business. Along with my full time job at Barnes and Noble, inc as an Accounts Payable Representative, I am an Entrepreneur working "with" and NOT "for" CarbonCopyPro. It makes a huge difference when you are working "with" a company rather than "for" a company.
Today when working "with" CCPro, I can set my own, no more 9-5 strict working hours. I can work wherever I want to, in my living room, my bedroom, even on a beach with my laptop, in other words, no more driving all the way to the office and spend the most hours stuck in that crazy traffic. I can write my own paycheck based on exactly what I earn instead of the boss writing my paycheck after pulling out the big bucks from what we earned for himself. To make it short, as an entrepreneur, I am my own boss.

Books for Women Entrepreneurs
- There's a thread for good books in the Resources folder, but it doesn't target books for businesswomen particularly, so I figured I'd start such a thread here.
It doesn't matter how successful you are in your business - it's always possible to learn something new.
In subsequent posts I give Table of Contents and brief descriptions for various titles - most of them devoted to the businesswoman - and sometimes a review. If anyone else has read a review, or has read the book and found it useful, please comment!

Re: What's 1 word to describe what your business will be in 2012
- Successful.
Chacha search engine
- Great suggestion Andy! I read about ChaCha in Inc or Business 2.0 a few months ago. They have an interesting story - I wonder how they are going to scale as they grow if they have to pay their guides. Have you had any experience using ChaCha?
Finding creativity
- Great topic Andy! For me it's:
- Going for a walk (I always try to get out at least once during the day)
- Taking a shower
- Reading business magazines (especially Inc and Business 2.0)
- Late at night (I'm more productive / creative at night than during the day)
- Relaxing with a drink at the bookstore
