I've got a few books I'm going to power my way through for inspiration..

Currently reading The $100 Start Up

Then I've got..

Alan Sugar - What you see is what you get

James Caan - The real deal

Sam Walton - Made in America

Tim Ferris - The 4 hour work week



As for what I said above about not knowing what will happen with my company in regards to where I'll go with it. One thing is for sure - I refuse to pay into a pension scheme where I "put money away" for retirement in 36 fucking years. I may not even make it that far. I see a pension "scheme" as another form of tax. Plus, pension is the most depressing word I can think of.

The way I see it is, I have 36 years to make my own large chunk of money. Even if it takes 5 failed businesses to reach a successful one.

Obviously I'm not planning to fail 5 businesses - the point is I'd prefer to do that than wait until I'm 70 & past my best to have regular pocket money from my own savings.

Fuck. That. Shit.
