Panel 25
So you want a job in the backcountry?
What are you doing in computers?
Don't expect to find anything in misc.jobs.offered.
GO visit a job placement office.
4. There are many senses of the word "wealth," not all of them material.
I'm not talking about trying to make a deep philosophical point here
about which is the true kind. I'm writing about one specific rather
technical sense of the word "wealth." What people will give you money
for. This is an interesting sort of wealth to study, because it is the
kind of that prevents you from starving. And what people will give you
money for depends on them, not you.
When you are in a business, it's easy to slide into thinking that
customers want what you do. During the Internet Bubble I talked to a
woman who, because she liked the outdoors, was starting an
"outdoor portal."
You know what kind of business you should start if you like
the outdoors? One to recover data from crashed hard disks.
