Gogoquincy.com has been helping adults 55+ with all of their digital issues. I got it for my mom and it’s been great.


I'm the founder of Breta - we're creating an alternative to hiring freelancers and agencies. Would love feedback from the community.


Most people forget to factor incentives and bargaining into the new/old/buy/lease argument. I've leased new cars that cost less than the depreciation on a purchase. You can also buy a used car for an exorbitant amount, spending more than new.


are you competing with freelancer sites?


Based on the HN discussion 3 days ago, it seems that freelancer sites are ripe for disruption.

My opinion is that they are ripe for extinction.


Yes and no. We're building a place for freelance developers to share, showcase, and find new freelance gigs. We're not attempting to be a middle man in the actual transaction but to improve the process of finding the right freelancer for your specific job.


Have you thought about applying for medicaid? As far as I understand they cover all your medical expenses, as long as you're making below a certain amount per year?


My father makes too much. :(

Why not hire a cheap overseas developer to create v1? It will cost you a grand or two, but will allow you to test your idea for little capital. You can always rebuild v2 with a reputable dev shop or freelance team.


I believe I have the funds to produce a quality product in V1. I would like to work with someone fairly local for some hand holding. Thanks!


I may have an idea for you. Shoot me an email, it's in my profile.


SEEKING FREELANCER: Looking to build a complicated mobile and web app that run in conjunction. OK with remote, solo freelancer, or team. Seeking developer that can handle complex problems. Please reply to email in profile.


1. False

2. My understanding of the law is if you have no employees in the state and no office, you're location-less. I believe you can incorporate anywhere you want. You dont even need a physical address in the state, use a registered agent.

4. Get a separate bank account. All you need is articles of incorporation and a tax ID.

5. IMHO any time you're taking money, protect your ASSets and incorporate.

FYI - Don't hire a lawyer to incorporate for you. Download the files and mail them yourself. Its sooo easy, takes 5 minutes.


citi is decent. their backend looks like it was developed in the 70's, but it works
