Actually I think I handle my money well. I only used the new motorbike as an example. In reality it was more like "Sold old motorbike for $5000 before it lost too much value, bought new one for $7000 second hand".

I do agree I think I am missing something in the business end. This is actually what I like best. When programming for Sony, I was pretty much top of my game, but had nothing to learn. No new techniques, nothing new from year to year. There was nothing I couldn't do, or hadn't already done 1000 times.

But trying to market (your) programs and generate traffic is completely out of the box for me. If I was as good a business person as I was a programmer I would own Shell oil. I admit I suck at it, but at the same time that's what I like about it - trying that which I cannot do, and doing anyway even if it isn't perfect.
