Well, there's this. The startup thing is probably better for someone like me who has spent a ton of time thinking about what sort of startup is likely to be successful. I was just wondering if you had any thoughts on it.

BTW, it's worth noting that there are probably also ways to strategically maximize your income as a psychologist.

A standard way to make more money as a psychology professor is to get a job in a business school instead of a psychology department. It's worth maybe a factor of 2.
