Hey guys, my name is Dean Soto, and this is the first in a series of episodes on how to build your business, and save money on the technology involved. I am pumped and excited to not just share my ideas, but to also hear about your ideas on how to light the spark to set your business on fire (not literally). So welcome, and feel free to comment and let me know if I am right on, or if I am full of it.

November 9, 2009 at 4:23 amGreetings Dean and everyone!Thank you for sharing all of the information and inspiration, Dean. It is refreshing to see a person getting out onto the web with a genuine desire to help others.Being unemployed, I am one of the "lucky ones" that you mentioned. The humbling experience of loosing a fairly lucrative paycheck has been a profound one for me, in many positive ways. My wife and I have substantially changed the way we look at needs vs. wants, and also, what things are really important in life.I look forward to hearing more about entrepreneurship.

November 9, 2009 at 6:30 amThanks so much for your comment! It really added a lot! I was a bit hesitant to say that people in your situation are lucky, because obviously it's not a place that you would normally want to be in. But as you say, you see things a lot differently and you know for a fact that you are able to adapt. What would have seemed like the worse thing to ever happen to you is actually survivable. I still have a lot of fears, even though I mask them. I'm just starting out with my businesses and there is a long road ahead. But, if we trust Christ, and are not acting imprudently, we'll be fine. We are in this together, and I've had a lot of people help me along the way. Helping others to do what they love is the least I can do (even if it's not being an entrepreneur). Thank you again!!

I used a plugin for these videos that I uninstalled because of my old theme. I've reinstalled it again.
I must warn you, I don't agree with a lot of my old stuff. I've learned a lot since then
