			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Business Week examines the home and office lives of couples who&#8217;ve started a businesses together:</p>
<p><em>With the right attitude, though, abetted by clearly defined roles and open lines of communication, both the company and the couple can thrive. Adrian Velasquez, 61, and Christine Krause, 48, founded Milwaukee-based Fi-Med Management in 1993, in part because they wanted to work together. Today, the $3 million company, which specializes in accounting and banking solutions for medical practices, has 45 employees. And Velasquez and Krause still relish being together all day, every day, and talking shop well into the evening. &#8220;I know it sounds too good to be true,&#8221; says Velasquez. &#8220;But working together actually keeps our relationship fresh.&#8221;</em></p>
