Let's do it .... Shall We ???!!!

Guys,

(Note: I am not associated with running this site, and I do not directly or indirectly know anyone who runs it.)

Most of the time, we remain in a "will do" mindset instead of "let's do it," especially people like me

Running a website with good footprint needs a lot of effort and money - and if it is not an e-commerce site or a site with a concrete revenue model, it is like running a charity.

I had this experience when I ran a very helpful site with regular investment analysis (with my regular job) - very successful for traffic but no revenue model. And then, I could not sustain myself because of the amount of time required.

Now, 4 years back, leaving a good job as the country head for a multinational and starting a business in an area that was completely new to me, I can appreciate what the JRef guys are doing for this community—a community where many of us can come to take a break.

Can at least some of us come out of our "Will do" mainframe mind frame and show our appreciation today for - Donor status ???

And more than anything, what I see in terms of the friendliness of these guys (their comments) and the way they are so attentive, really touches the heart

@HJain, I appreciate the donation drive and want to express my profound gratitude to those who contributed today. Your support could not come more timely.

All proceeds will be used towards maintaining JREF.

That's very kind of you. I wish you the best of luck in your new job!
