As a recent college graduate and entrepreneur at heart I feel that I need to take a bit more risk in life.
Yesterday John Chow (Great blog by the way!) posted a review of Matt’s website, Take More Risk.com, part of the ReviewMe 50% off promo. Matt is a 23 year old web designer (like me) who is making $5,000 a year right now from the net. Matt established his master plan of trying to make $60 a day by July 1, 2007 and $80,000 a year by September 2008. It’s interesting because I am the same age, similar skill set (web developer), and starting my own self funded company, Nomad Thinking.
If you need some inspiration to for your own startup check out Startupping. They have an interesting post on the best and worst decisions. There are a lot of great stories and information for people who want to make money online. There was also a great article on the 25 Top Web 2.0 companies.
If you are still reading this and want to get your feet wet with risk you can! Y Combinator has announced its call for Summer Applications. If you have never heard of Y combinator, please check out Tech Crunch’s Write up. I am looking for a team and plan to apply with a couple of ideas. Who’s with me?

Wahey!
I hadn’t heard of the Startupping site and it looks like something I sorely needed!
Thanks for the buzz,
Matt
