"Your competition is a hungry immigrant with a digital handheld assistant. America is made up of immigrants... if your children are to be successful they must act like immigrants in their own country. Just by being born here doesn't give you the ability to be successful... it is the work ethic... the pioneering ethic... the service ethic that will win. Your competition is always a hungry immigrant with a digital assistant: hungry in the belly for food, hungry in the mind for knowledge, and the hunger is something that should never leave you."

~Dr. Dennis Waitley

comment Is internship considered as “work-for-hire” in the US? Who owns the software intellectual property rights created by an intern with no contract?
@NeedAGeekIndy are you sure you're not getting your information mixed up with patents? Last time I checked, the software developers at google don't own rights to the software... google does.

If it's the U.S. "An agreement doesn't have to be written" is just bad form. Whenever you're in business and you need to secure your rights in that business (if you don't possess ownership [stock] of that business), you better have an agreement. A handshake and a smile doesn't cut it in court.

This question poses a request for a comparison as opposed to a direct answer, thus it cannot truly be answered.

comment Setting income limits for rental leases
+1 I never thought to compare it to how banks figure mortgages/personal loans. That's not a bad idea to at least look at how they figure in everything to find out where a good middle-point would be.

+1 That PDF was an interesting read. Beit the year 2000, but still relevant. The statement about how income isn't a good calculator of risk is so true, especially in the case of a new family.
