About
I'm Jon. I'm 59, I live in the UK, and I have four grown-up children who all had a better start than I did. That was the goal, and I hit it.
The name is a bit of a joke. Jonny Success, when I'm not rich and I'm not famous. But it's also true, by the only measure I ever set myself.
What I don't have yet is a steady income online. I've got plenty of ideas and plenty of half-finished projects. This site is me finishing things, in public, with the numbers on show.
I use AI a lot, and I say so. It helps me build things like Roast My Plan and it helps me pick apart the hype. The opinions, the decisions and the mistakes are mine.
If you want the backstory, start with Neither one nor the other.

Got an idea? Get it roasted first.
Most business plans fail because nobody tells the founder the truth. Before you spend three months and thousands of pounds building something, paste it into Roast My Plan. It checks the behaviour, the costs and the execution risks, and tells you plainly what breaks. Free, no account, nothing stored.
