If I had a penny for every time I doled out ~$50 for a business registration when I was ~10-15 years old... I would have ~10 cents.

I don't blame people for running out to incorporate their business or register their new idea with the local government, since that is seemingly the first step you must take before starting a business.

After you register a few business' however, you find out it's not.

Registering a company here in Australia costs enough that you usually need some traction first (it tended to be at least $1k in government fees, and ballpark $3k if you used an accountant, although I see now there are services for ~$500).

And yet, look at all of the Australian Twitters and Flickrs out there.
