    Went to the Dutch Chamber of Commerce yesterday to finish my CoC registration and so Juun Software was born! :D I'll be switching to a 32 hour work week for my current employer and spend at least 8 hours a week for my own business. I'm already working on a project (some custom software for a startup), but it's hard next to a 40 hour work week. I've got everything covered financially, so I can just sit back, relax, and enjoy the ride :D So remember that name, Juun Software. You'll be seeing it next to Microsoft, Apple, and Google in a couple of years ;p

      Good luck - pro tip: make customer relations your #1 priority. Then make it your #2 one as well. Customers will be more forgiving of late delivery, bugs, whatever than they will be of being left in the dark and not communicated honestly with.

          Very cool. My ratio is 24 / 16, but I told them (my employer) that if they actually have enough work and interesting work worthy of my time -- their words, not mine -- that I would consider 32 / 8.

            but be careful making your relations customers (relatives/friends) - too often ends badly.

                          I hope to go to 24/16 in a year or so. The next step would be full time I guess. The benefit of 32/8 is that I don't need any income from my own business at all to pay my bills and so I've got practically 0% (financial) risk.

                              Best of luck. When I started out with Comport Computing, I had a similar desire to yours. But, I ended up being the CEO and Janitor, too. I left a 40 hour work week and ended up working 80 hours a week. I did have more fun and made more mon ey than before, but relaxing only made me lose business. Then I ended up losing it all when I had a stroke. Now I'm trying to figure out how to start over again. Some people never learn, not even the hard way. I'm still finishing a PHD and a business degree, too. I could just retire, but I tried that fpor a few days and decided it was too boring!

                                      Best of luck. When I started out with Comport Computing, I had a similar desire to yours. But, I ended up being the CEO and Janitor, too. I left a 40 hour work week and ended up working 80 hours a week. I did have more fun and made more mon ey than before, but relaxing only made me lose business. Then I ended up losing it all when I had a stroke. Now I'm trying to figure out how to start over again. Some people never learn, not even the hard way. I'm still finishing a PHD and a business degree, too. I could just retire, but I tried that fpor a few days and decided it was too boring!

                                      Thanks Walt! It's good to see you, legible and all (those "stroke posts" had us worried) :D Awesome to see you're picking it up again. Good luck with your degrees.

                                        but be careful making your relations customers (relatives/friends) - too often ends badly.

                                        I've worked for my uncle for a couple of years (and he worked for my parents for about 12 years). It had good times and some less good times. He may be my second customer though :D

                                          Went to the Dutch Chamber of Commerce yesterday to finish my CoC registration and so Juun Software was born! :D I'll be switching to a 32 hour work week for my current employer and spend at least 8 hours a week for my own business. I'm already working on a project (some custom software for a startup), but it's hard next to a 40 hour work week. I've got everything covered financially, so I can just sit back, relax, and enjoy the ride :D So remember that name, Juun Software. You'll be seeing it next to Microsoft, Apple, and Google in a couple of years ;p

                                          Congrats Sander! May the bugs be few, the customers plenty, and the logic de-coupled!
