My Job Hunt Update...(A whole new world for MacroGuru)
 

Well,

If you read the Cringer Job Angst thread and my Dream Job no more thread I am providing a brief update on where I am going with my life now.

I am in the process of getting ready to start my own company, a non profit org, that will almost do exactly what I did with my dream job, but take a slightly different spin on it.

I am finalizing the business plan this week, and my business partner and I have several grants lined up, plus phone calls have been made to some of the companies I have dealt with in the past.

Fingers crossed, asking for positive prayers and vibes and such.

I am going out there to do something I truly love, and I hope to make a some sort of impact to some of the lower income high school kids out there.

Once the company is successfully launched, I will provide details of the business to the board.

Cool, good luck!

Great to hear. Good luck!

Good luck with the project! I do want to caution you that it can be quite difficult to land grants, especially if you aren't matching grant contributions with organizational funds. If you're relying on grant funding for a significant portion of your finances, you'll have an even harder time. I'd make sure that I looked for private donors and such to supplement your finances.

Good luck!

Good luck. Without hearing details, it certainly sounds like something worthwile from what you have said.

I am definately looking at all realms, for the idea, private donors are definately a bulk of the funding we are wanting because it will benefit them more, to have their name out there assisting the growth of the future.

Good luck mate!

Best of luck to you!

Good luck Dennis!

Good luck! Looking forward to seeing how this goes. :)
