MILLION? Who has a few spare $M sitting around doing nothing? :) I agree with most of the rest of James' statement! > > Even with such precautions, most projects fail. Simply not true.

Hmmm, perhaps some good advice here! However, James, according to your website echeque.com, you are an "expert" in freedom... what experience do you have as an investor? Care to share your personal pearls of wisdom? Cheers!
