I find many that people confuse happiness with blissfulness (if we accept that old adage that Ignorance is bliss).

I’m wanting to start a cooperative and I know you have done it many times over as stated in your posts. Where is a good point to start and what advice could you give on starting and maintaining one?

Cooperatives can take many forms and adopt many start-up methods, from collective funding, to traditional bank loans.My advice on the front end is solid documentation and record keeping; and make sure your core co-op members are properly vetted, and down for the long haul. Don’t allow your eagerness and enthusiasm to cause you to make mistake. Even though you are developing a cooperative enterprise you still have to operative in and...
