>You missed my point which was that one can attain a far higher salary if you are willing and able to take on the risk of whether or not it will be profitable.

Thanks for bringing up the magic word: risk. If taking risk is your advice for a better life, we might as well spend 8 hours in the casino instead of the office.

>If you can't figure that out, you are already doomed so you better rachet down that lifestyle for 30k a year right now.

So if you can't figure out how to beat the Chindians, you might as well go live in a village in the Himalaya???

I wish you're 20 years younger so that you can feel the plight of being marginalized. But you have yourself well protected with the fortunes you've amassed over the years and the retirement account that the younger generation will subsidize.

>My print prices are 20 times what the Walmart down the street charges. Why would a customer pay 20x, are they all stupid or is there more to it than sheer price? It has nothing to do with how I market my services as you suggest. It has to do with delivering superior results that result in large profits for my customers.

So your answer for the people who work for the local walmart, which probably outnumber your boutique shop by a factor of 10-100 is: too bad you guys are too inferior??

Grace, I thought we're talking the printing industry, not your particular superior quality boutique shop.
