The Entreprenurial Slant
I have found myself bouncing around in some interesting circles recently. Funny how Houston is such a small world in the energy sector and how your name gets around. As a result some energy deals have come my way that could be described as entrepreneurial which is an interesting turn for me.
I can't begin to recount the times that people have asked me why don't I simply start my own business, but for me, it's just not that simple. I can't see myself buying a franchise or anything like that as I have always aspired to create value in the things I do. Nothing wrong with owning a Quizno's or dry cleaner as clearly a LOT of money is made in those businesses, but it's just not for me. But recently I have found myself in smaller and smaller circles talking about new opportunities that could go forward. Clearly I don't have the capital available or the time to work for sweat equity, but something like this would be a big departure from the previous environments I have worked in. Could this all be leading up to one grand good bye from corporate America?

things that make you go "hmmmm?"
And a grand hello to corporate Booster. Cool thing if you can make it work.
I am fully of the opinion that you can do anything you want to do. It is exciting to think about "what if?"
