That's great, it seems like a bunch of happy "accidents" happened in connection to your activities as a blogger. Was it a technical blog? What pushed you to start a blog in the first place?

I am not sure you'll find so many people here that are : - able to read French - interested in investing in French real estate

No matter how people on both sides react, they are all at the very least decently smart persons and an acceptable apology shouldn't be only a place for redemption. I can't imagine people at Curebit assuming that the ripoff wouldn't be discovered. So why did they do that?

Great post. However, deciding whether the range of options you are considering to solve a problem is too narrow seems to be more easier in small business structures as a result of efficient interactions. University didn't teach me which method is the best, but that other methods very often exist. And how to decide which one is the most interesting for my own need.
