To send or not to send China newsletter?

Sent out China Business Success Stories newsletter (summary) today. Meantime wanted to check stats. And posted a new China Expert Guest Blog item. That was overdoing it for our server (I think). It shut down. What to do? Ignore: I think it affected less then 20% of our readers, many of whom will read it later again. Or resend? Let's see. I think: do nothing, better luck next week, and after all, Tuesday is the China Business summary of last week, so no harm missing it if you subscribe to our China newsletter to be on top of things (which is every Friday). Agree?

China Business?

Just starting this China Business supporting blog it seems quite silly to ask the visitors (10 a day ;-) what to do. With that being said, why not go out on a limb. Here's the question. Remember: I am the one who changed Twitter overnight (see previous post, with http://twitter.com/FishinChina/statuses/159544332), and the same guy that develops lighting speed according to Alexa with http://www.chinasuccessstories.com/. You know: that modest dude.

Question is: should I put my time, effort and money into making this world a better place, before or after making some (pocket change) money? Think Bill Gates on this one. If I want to help improve the lives of many, Chinese, African, Brazilian, should I sacrifice all I have right now – which is about 0,001% of what Bill has – or should I push forward doing what I love doing (fishing, doing business & thinking of China) to make sure I actually have something to spend by the time payback is due. You decide. If you happen to be Chinese your vote counts double. Let me know!
