Are you a single founder ?
Mz: I don't know if it is accurate to say "yes, I am" or if it would be better to say "I'm a wannabe single founder".  Only it's not really as simple as that either.  My two adult sons are kind of in this with me, only they don't plan on being cofounders for my plans.  They plan on founding their own company.  Still, the three of us are collaborating on working out what needs to be worked out for all of us to get there from here.  So I am not entirely alone, though I don't expect to have any actual cofounders.1)I have been working on several things for a few years. Last summer, I began posting here because I concluded I need to learn a programming language and write a simulation/game as an educational tool for my health site.  For better or for worse, the ideas on the site grow out of my own first-hand experience with getting well against impossible odds.  Between continuing to work on resolving my health issues and working as much overtime as I can at my job, I haven't made much headway towards my goals for this site, and even less headway on goals for other websites I own.  None of this started as a "business" idea.  It is only fairly recently that my thoughts have turned in that direction.2) I have toyed with applying and started to fill out an application for last fall.  Stuff I have read recently suggests to me they would never accept me, even if I concluded it was a good fit for my goals. But i seriously doubt it would be.  I plan to bootstrap it.3)  As above: No. I expect to bootstrap my business plans.4)  My health site is http://www.healthgazelle.com  It is the best developed of the sites I have.  The others are languishing in purgatory (or perhaps I should say "languishing even worse than this one").
