Then what do you do, if you want to do some groundbreaking
scientific research that costs $5,000,000 or more, but
nobody, or at least not enough, were convinced by your
proposal perhaps out of prejudice, even though your argument
was good and their critique was not. But you say that money
is never a problem if you really want something. So lets
say you have your little heart set on that research, then
what do you do?

Mike, my intentions as far as money were only concerned with personal
finance. My suggestion was that, at some point, you'd be financially
set.

However, when it comes to research dollars, I completely agree with
you.

If you did groundbreaking research into, say, something as important
as stem cells or anything good for humans, then you might find it hard
to get money.

But let's say you did successful research into cosmetics, then I'd bet
you could find more financing than you'd know what to do with!

Sorry I wasn't more comprehensible the first time.

Thanks,

Brian

What about my question about the equation?
