One bit of advice. Don't go into business with friends you can't live with losing. Best advice. Don't go into business with friends. I created a business with a bunch from friends from school and we did well. So well that we had more customers than we could handle. End result: everyone quit but me. :( . If I could do it over I would have waited until I had the cash to hire help and quit my day job. I lost a lot of "good" friends over money and walked away with a huge loss when I couldn't deliver by myself.

I have to agree with the majority point here. A stiff cocktail or just some hard alcohol on ice and I can program (very slowly) pretty well. One beer and I want to curl up under my desk and go to sleep. As a possible counter-point I knew an ex-M$ employee that could drink 6 beers during lunch then go back to work and be productive. :) I have much to learn before I shall become a jedi-knight.
