    I have an interview setup with Jennifer Kushell, author of Secrets of the Young and Successful and creator of the YSN, at 5pm on Thursday.

    I'd really like to involve everyone here in the interview. So if you have any questions you'd like me to ask her, include them in this thread and I'll try and ask them.

    I'm hoping to be able to record the interview and post it as an mp3, but can't guarantee that I'll be able to get that to work. Either way, I'll post the interview up in text and/or audio shortly after it's edited.

    Ask away!

    I have a few...

    What motivates you?
    What is your biggest vice?
    What was your first job?
    Did you come from a family of entrepreneurs or did you break the mold?

    What led you to become involved in entrepreneurialism?

    Did you run another business before starting YSN? If yes, what was it?
    How did you see technology enabling your business early on (ie. when you were distributing software quarterly to going on the internet in 94)?

    Okay guys, anymore questions? I'm prepping for the interview and trying to set up my recording rig. If you'd like to squeeze another question in, ask now or forever hold your peace. ;)

    I've got my questions together, just wanted to see if anyone wanted to throw a curveball in.

    I just tested a call recording in Audacity and it worked, so I should be able to tape this. If I can't, I really don't want to have to write down every word from the interview, so I'll do whatever I can to tape it.
