| (Comment at Slashdot.org) by Terje Mathisen - Been there, Done that. [Re. Start your own company] Before taking a one-year sabbathical (91-92) which I spent in the US, writing networking code, I had a company that sold terminal emulation/file transfer software. I sold enough licenses to make it one of the top 5 bestselling norwegian programs. During the last year the norwegian IRS grabbed 83% of every Krone I invoiced my customers. At that point I realized that I'd much rather work less and spend more time with my wife & kids, so I closed the company. Explains why so many people move to the U.S. to start a company. |
