I'll remind you just as politely that when we post our experiences to public forums, judging comes part and parcel with that.
True, but no one here really has enough information to truly make those assessments. That said, I get what you're saying and I actually agree with you to a large extent. In our case, doing things the way we chose was not a reflection of anything specific about the business or the business model, it's been more a reflection of our beliefs and attitudes and principles.
And to be fair, if I had to do it all over again, I probably would change a few things. Not a lot, but some things. Like not neglecting my health. I just went out and spent an hour on my bicycle earlier tonight, getting some exercise in. That was a part of my life I let slip over the past few years. Never again... I learned that lesson the hard way, and thankfully I'm still here to benefit from it.
