[Blindtlk] can starting a Braille transcription make money?

[David Andrews]

It is my opinion that there might be a little money to be made here, 
not a lot.  The market is small, and people aren't willing to pay 
adequately for the time of a skilled transcriber.  If you are good at 
drumming up business, you  might make a go of it, but I think it 
would be a tough road.
