Partly because I'm proud of it, and partly to show that software business doesn't have to be terrible, let me tell you a bit about my "business"...
My business is never going to see exponential growth. There's slow growth on good years, sometimes not even that. It provides me with a comfortable income regardless.
My business supplies the world with a few solid software components. There's multiple copies of them on your computer right now. Several more in the websites you use. ⇒
