Everyone has them, no one likes them, and we all deal with
them: BUGS - software bugs that is. Nothing is perfect, and with today's
software reaching into millions of lines of code, a few mistakes are bound to
creep in. Fortunately, modern and robust programming techniques have eradicated a lot of common
mistakes, or at least relegated them to annoyances rather than show stoppers -
as long as your developer is following a regimented development cycle.

Answer: Start with a Billion Dollars. This is an old joke that I use on my
brother-in-law from time to time, except it has a farming slant to it. The
message really is this: without some careful planning, software development -
especially custom projects where the goals are not clearly defined - can
quickly get out of hand and out of budget. RAD (Rapid Application Development)
quickly becomes SAD (Slow Application Development).
