We started our Money Talks column to take a closer look at people’s relationships, their money, and their relationships with money, all of which intersect in unexpected ways. We’ve heard from dozens of people in conversation with their business partners, friends, loved ones, and the not-quite categories in between, on topics ranging from how they handle splitting bills when one person makes more money than the other to what it’s like running a 55-year-old coffee shop with your elderly father.
We’re looking for small-business owners who are willing to get candid with a reporter about the financial and emotional realities of running or working at a small business. Are you best friends or family members trying to make a business work? Perhaps a pair of exes putting their differences aside for the company? What’s it like working for yourself and with your business partners? What inspired you to start your business? How have you been affected by economic uncertainty, or technology, or cultural shifts? What are the best parts of your job, and the hardest parts? We want to know!
If you have a story to share, let us know in the Google form below or at this link. And keep an eye out for the resulting interviews, which will begin publishing in July!
