    I do programming work for my company of course but I also do consulting work on the side using PayPal. I have done work for customers all over the world as C++ Architect using simply PayPal and email. However if you want start a software company I would say that most important is to have guards. In Tirupathi we must ensure that no one breaks in to steal the computers or the cables and other things. Also it is important to enforce discipline among coders because my company is very strict on discipline.
