There are computer engineers that run businesses effectively too, and they get paid this well for it. The lesson here is you do not get paid 6 digits to ply a craft; you get paid 6 digits to run a business. -- -------- "And there came a writing to him from Elijah" [2Ch 21:12] -------- Robert Jay Brown III rj@eli.elilabs.com http://www.elilabs.com 1 847 705-0424 Elijah Laboratories Inc.; 37 South Greenwood Avenue; Palatine, IL 60067-6328 ----- M o d e l i n g t h e M e t h o d s o f t h e M i n d ------
