    Wouldn't using my mobile phone be adequate for now? I can pretty much answer it whenever I want to. Even at work. When business picks up I can get a virtual recep then, no?

This service should cost you no more than $10 a month. Optimum cable, along with a myriad other hosted...

    Not sure what direction to take career wise

    I was brought up to believe that I'm a failure and that I will amount to nothing so it will take some effort to believe that I might actually be a success. So that is the first challenge to subjugate. I found similar websites. It's companies selling leads. I have limited money to spend. Enough...
