We are shying away from discussing goals or resolutions for the businesses this year. Instead, we reflect on how the bootstrapped world and business models have changed. A lot of approaches and marketing techniques have gone by the wayside in the last two years. We share our observations of how self-funding has changed as a strategy.

We also talk about the big D-word (downturn) and the real possibility that 2019 might be a major game-changing year for the economy.
