General audio topics that don't fit into specific categories.

Actually, yes...

...back in 1998 I took a year off between jobs and already had decided I didn't want to buy the Absolute Sound and keep it running.

So I decided using my experience to open an audio store might be fun, found a location, talked to some manufacturers and put together a business plan.

It was all sounding great until I put together a 3 year pro forma financial statement.

In the very best scenario, I would be investing a lot of money in a very risky proposition where the small profit would be my salary.

Not long after that I got a call from a recruiter and went back to work.

In the 16 years since then, as I have watched the successful B & M stores go under, I have never regretted avoiding taking the fun out of my hobby.
