There once was a guy that came on here -- had a yard full of junk cars -- lamented that he had so many projects he couldn't finish them all. From the looks of it to me - he couldn't afford to do one let alone "all"... My advice to him at the time was to figure out the ONE that he wanted most - sell all the others in an effort to fund the one. That way he'd have one running nice car rather than 10 piles of junk.

His response was, that wasn't going to happen because "he needed" all of them. So to Jimmy's point - the problem was himself.
You sir are 100% correct, the problem is ME. I cringe when my wife says "yer gonna hafta sell something to get that new widget" I HAVE TOO MANY COOL PROJECTS TO AFFORD AT ONE TIME! I'm too smart to rob a bank, Iv'e seen how them guys do after they are locked up, it aint pretty. So the new question of the day is "Once a guy has dumped a boatload of money into a project or ten how do you decide where to start cutting losses, there must be some rhyme or reason.
