Yeah, I agree. The company was started in April, and the consultant joined that same month. Obviously you, Jeff, know better than we do, but it seems likely that he's been a huge part of the company's success. What would happen if you lost him?

I would not be where I am today if he wasn't a part of this. What would I do if I lost him? Answer is I don't know. The company would not implode and we would keep moving forward but at what cost?????

Talking this out helps. Thanks for the input.
