@Stephen Its obvious I don`t mean to suggest someone has to fetch money and never deliver.But i mean side projects that produce tools that solve specific issue that a common person can buy as it is. Something you can sell quickly with no need of much documentation, training or the sort.Something you can get few bobs at a go.Something someone might by because its cheap but it solves certain segment of problem that is necessary for specific task.e.g a tool that trim duplicate files.

@kinpro,
I am not sure by what you mean by petty projects, i am pretty sure whatsapp seemed like a petty projects when it started with the likes of facebook chat, gmail chat, yahoo chat, ......
Also if you take someones money and don't deliver, you are not better than the greedy people you are against and the same shall be done to you. You are also discouraging the genuine investors and contributing to the downfall of the industry.
My best advice is don't deal with people who you don't trust. Do your research regarding all people you deal with, their history and all. Finally even if you trust them, have them sign a contract
*don't trust rules; trust people!* *Meaning you sign a contract with someone you trust*
So @gisho how did it go ? On Fri, Feb 13, 2015 at 2:04 PM, Kinpro Computers-All IT soutions via skunkworks <skunkworks@lists.my.co.ke> wrote:

@Gisho, Hivyo ndivyo kunaendaga. I had a similar case, my file was lost. I buried the shit. Just take your life with you, there are better things to do in this world other than attending courts, eternally.
