    Hello.  This is my first post so I hope I do it right.  Regarding
    Noel's Truth or Dare question, I consider myself a stay-at-home Mom,
    yet I have established an astonishing business by pretty much just
    stringing beads. I'm trying to teach myself more skilled techniques,
    but that is another story.  Anyway, figuring what percentage of our
    income comes from my business is tough because there are so many
    factors:  figuring out my exact profit, and figuring in all the
    expenses and taxes that go with a regular paycheck.  For example, I
    do not need to pay for day care, gas, lunches out, or a business
    wardrobe. When I get discouraged, my husband, who is an accountant,
    walks me through the numbers.  His conclusion is that I am making
    just as much as I would at a $40,000 or so regular management
    corporate job. The beauty of it is I do what I love, I don't deal
    with corporate politics and I'm there for my kids.  I can take a
    vacation whenever I want, and many of my customers have become
    friends.  However, I realize that not all are so lucky in not having
    to support a family. Rebecca
