Comment on The first retail social impact bond: cancelled by Scott Taylor https://socialenterprisebuzz.com/2013/08/27/the-first-retail-social-impact-bond-cancelled/#comment-72 Scott Taylor Fri, 13 Sep 2013 14:35:00 +0000 https://socialenterprisebuzz.com/?p=4645#comment-72 I think it’s difficult to go about this kind of thing now without being accused/suspected of investment bond mis-selling. Investments are naturally risky by nature, and it’s so important that investors are warned of the potential risks.

Comment on One in Four magazine: what’s it been like running a social enterprise for 5 years? by Neuroskeptic https://socialenterprisebuzz.com/2013/09/03/one-in-four-magazine-whats-it-been-like-running-a-social-enterprise-for-5-years/#comment-70 Neuroskeptic Tue, 03 Sep 2013 17:54:00 +0000 https://socialenterprisebuzz.com/?p=4731#comment-70 It takes both skill and dedication to do what Mark does. I cut my teeth in writing with a small student magazine, hustling for money from corporate sponsors, negotiating with printers, deciding whether to cut back on colour pictures or 4 pages of content… it’s tough.

And that was back when the economy was still healthy – I can’t imagine what it’s like now.

And that was just a hobby. To stick out in that world for 5 years as a career is truly amazing.
