    My most recent client is a not for profit organisation.

    The project we put live was a great money spinner for them, but difficult to predict revenue until 2011.

    I have to say, a lot of government work could be outsourced to these organisations. They do run quite lean.

    Goldman Sachs have a philosophy which states that no matter how much money you make, you can consider your working life to be a failure if you haven't given some of your time and expertise to society.

    If you look at the CVs of the board of Goldmans, most of them also spend time on the board of various not-for-profit organisations.

    Honourable. We should hear more of this.
    It's getting harder & harder to keep the government in the manner to which they have become accustomed.

    People need to remember support costs.

    You might make 200k for a business but what about the people who make 0 but allow to to do so?

    Years ago I used to earn under £16k(after commission) but used to clear over £300K GP for the company. That was 20% of revenue and profit for the company.
    I was just happy to work, what a stupid !!!!!! I was. :)
