i can't see myself sucking money out of people to pay for my site i dont understand why you keep saying this... the only reason people would pay for a site would be because they could make more money with the information gleaned from private site... its as simple as that, if they didn't make more money they wouldnt pay... a small amount to cover the expenses involved in setting up a site would not be unreasonable... some of the private sites out there charging hundreds a month are ridiculous...

Tim, I gotta ask you this...why not do a pay site and charge people? There's a big difference between sucking money away from people and charging a reasonable price for a useful service/product. You of all people should understand this - it's business and it shouldn't be personal. Just like knowing when to buy and sell shouldn't involve emotion, neither should setting up a legitimate business. FWIW, Dave

<<<well one of the things jenna wanted to know in pm was how come i'm not doing a pay site....simple answer...i can't see myself sucking money out of people to pay for my site even though i could do very well at it>>> OH OH don't tell me that the people who have pay sites are getting on your case now.....ha ha.....that is just too funny. You must be competition for them then.. Ahhhh Tim, it is good that you have big shoulders for all that goes on in Cyberland. I think as a mom, I would say that some of the things that go on in this land, can build character, teach us patience(<gg> holding CS stock), hoding each others hands when needed, <s> and so many other things.

Why don't you just do it yourself.. charge $20, not $600 and see what happens. If you could do it well than you would do it. You started off with 6 or 7 foreign languages well? Your nobility is touching. But of course your friend is charging $600 a month and you are staunchly in favor of that expensive site. I'm not saying he is not worth it, he might very well be. Your hypocrisy is grating, like scraching a blackboard with chalk. There was no mention of money just of stopping to throw my name around to get what you think I have. Throw around your friends name not mine. Criticize your friends from 'sucking' out people..keep me out of your posts. There is no high horse here just a request to be left out of your 'whining' complaints. techstocks.com techstocks.com techstocks.com
