It doesn't take much to carry an idiot proof business forward, however we also need to give credit to those who really grow it. There is an old saying, the first mil is the hardest.

Brains has nothing to do with how much of a go getter someone is. I know a lot of people who could not do shit on their own but had great ideas and attracted the talent that was chicken shit to invest in themselves.

He sold out of the Taj Mahal down in Atlantic City years before it went under. 15 years ago I went to a vendor show in AC and I could not believe what a complete shit hole it was. The Indian casino's in Connecticut did in Atlantic City Trump was smart to get out when he did. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
