Congratulations, not only on making it a success but having the balls to do it. I had the chance once when I was made redundant and had a hefty payout to go out on my own. I had enough to keep us in food and house for around 5 months so it was a good chance. Alas, I did not do it. I couldn't face risking everything. I had just had a child and couldn't face it if I didn't do it. I am the bread winner as they say, if I hadn't found my market soon enough I would have failed.

I presume you had the distinct advantage to plan your move into working from home though, I was forced with only really two weeks to get something sorted and rolling.

Anyway, not to detract your success, well done!
