I hear this phrase alot but what does it mean to you? I don’t mind investing in my business where we take a risk for a reasonable chance of success. For me, the cost of doing business is stupid costly things that happen in the course of business. In the last week, I spent $230 on a speeding ticket while in Boston and $130 to change an Orbitz reservation on a $180 ticket where I clicked March instead of May. To me, these are the cost of being out there and doing business- you?
