I am a bit of a hypocrite about this, because I do have reviewers & I can review myself, but I can make more money doing other things & paying the reviewers.

Of course, neither of those things brought in 10 times my original revenue either

How many people remember the mess that was Adult Buffet after James(?) left for a 3 month vacation? Every time I think about not doing it myself, I think of that.

Personally. I'd like to hear Jim's opinion on things.

Yeah I was mostly just trying to make the point someone made better than I did above, which is to try and build a business vs. being self employed. Obviously if you are happy and making a comfortable living and enjoy the work you are doing, there is no reason to have to duplicate anything. My point was that most of us fall into the trap of wanting to grow something larger but getting in our own way for the reasons I mentioned.
