Hey Adam, ‘technically’ I am not employed nor running my own business (at the moment due to self imposed vacation) so I believe that I still qualify as being a Closet Entrepreneur.

So….

Does this mean that technically you’re out of the closet?

Hey Jeff, what a surprise to see a comment from you! If anything, I felt that you embodied the “new blood” at Intel! And at the very least, you had my vote for “Best Intel Blogger”!

Hey Atin! You know, I’ll have to double check that – I thought they matched contributions but now that you mention it, maybe it was the profit sharing that made it seem like my 401k was double what I put in? Good catch, I’ll edit the post for ‘correctness’.

Good luck my friend, nice post. Did Intel start matching 401k contributions? They never did when i worked there 3 years back, they just had “profit sharing”.

Thanks for the well wishes Jim! I guess you could say that I’m out of the closet since I’ll be working on the biz full time. Luckily, I learned quite a bit from working a 9-to-5 and now transitioning to full time entrepreneurship so I’ll still be posting things that are relevant to Closet Entrepreneurs.

Good luck Tomas! What does the future hold for you now? Does this mean you’re now a full time (out-of-the-closet) entrepreneur or will you still be doing your own business part time?
