Hi Max I'm glad this thread is upfront again, it is an excellent discussion into the REALITIES of songwriting and being one.Especially at the level when your sitting there wondering What?Why?How? I want to do do something with my songs beyond my own house. It NEVER happens, so why? how? what? can I do on my end. On the investing side of it. FORGET for a moment spending any,money on ANYTHING no recording,no equipment,and just think about ALL the hours and months and years spent on practicing, playing,writing and thinking about it. Okay add them up and know for a fact it was TIME spent NOT making money doing something else. So everybody invests in one way even if it doesn't come out of there pocket. Time is money, if I was getting paid for something else for every hour I practiced or jammed or wrote I would be VERY WELL OFF  To me there's no difference, all is an investment and the amount you put in usually shows itself in your work.  All the best Mike
