[Travis McGee]

Anybody in 2011 who is basing their life plan on somebody hiring them and paying a regular salary that covers all the costs, is not living in the current real world. That America is dead and gone. Millions of jobless Americans are staring at the horizon like cargo cultists, waiting for the big ship to come back. It ain't. Time to make a new plan, and carve out a new niche. It can be done. The internet lets anybody become their own tycoon, high or low. But for folks with little or no creativity, and no inkling of how to build a home business, times are very grim.

"Hope ain't hiring."
