Chuckster,
Here is my argument for not wanting the hassle of owning my own business. I'm very active and I get bored very easily. I like taking trips, I like getting outdoors, I like playing sports. I'm very selfish with my time. If I had my own business I would not trust anyone else to be there more than myself and that would take away from my personal time. I wouldn't be able to take my boat out as much as I like, stuff like that. That's why I don't have kids, I don't feel like I'd be responsible at this point in my life (I'm also too young). I appreciate your passion for your paticular choice but because it's not my choice don't say I'm not willing to take chances. (That's what the stock market is for, hahaha).
As for Sweet Suprises I have to come clean. I have a personal issue with the owner and her family. That is why I am happy they went under. It may be cruel....no, it is, but let's just say it's a money issue (not a small amount either). Don't think I'm evil because of it though.
