trainiac··on Analyzing Hunger: perception and empathy
Hunger is India's (and the World's) greatest problem even today. Help us in our analysis by answering a few questions and we will FEED ONE PERSON for every completed response.

Despite being among the top 10 percentile of fastest growing economies, India remains home to the largest hungry and undernourished population in the world. Almost 200 million people sleep hungry every night and around 7000 die of hunger everyday.

trainiac··on Ask HN: Do I need to incorporate?
Thanks! That's what I fear.

When you say dedicated account, do you mean just another personal account? Or a business account (hence setup company)?

Thanks! That makes a lot of sense.

This is intended to be an online service geared towards a humanitarian cause. Your reference about mocking things up and asking people is a really good one. I've been validating the idea by asking people questions through interviews and surveys and so far I have a good feeling about it. I'd be doing mockup validations too but as this is a service and not a product I may defer it for a bit (or not).

I'm with you on not wanting to create a company yet, but I wanted to know how practical is it to accept money into one's personal account? I obviously don't want to risk my personal assets but I also realize creating a company could be unnecessary hassle/expense. I'm trying to sort that confusion.
