These dumb basketball players are bringing in tens of millions of dollars for dribbling a ball and getting tattoos. If we use our mind nothing is impossible. See you on the other side partner.

most people can't even spend 100 mill. I can, but it would be on property in Dubai.

True dat! Unfortunatley, most of us don't have the skills to be pro athletes. One idea is all it takes. However, with my ideas I will probably end up in jail before I get there.

Build a remote stealth bomber plane from like shwepps bottles and stuff around your house, then sell it to the arabs.
Big money is obviously in inventions/products. There is a difference between being rich and being wealthy. Shaq is rich, the guy that employs him is wealthy.

mother****ers that invent those bullshit infommercial products are cleaning up. Also, iphone apps are cleaning up. Zynga became a billion dollar company in less than a year.

Some serious thought going on right now in the late night SBR ers..
I think you are usually just born into it. Or you are born white trash and that is that.

You know how much the damn sham wow must of brought in, or that ped egg. I mean the simplest stuff that is pitched right are just pure gold mines. Think about the several million Americans and the kind of mark up they are making on each sale. They even make money on the shipping half the time by covering themselves with "handling".

The biggest money is in massive international companys making weapons/stealth planes and war-industry shit... Not pet rocks. But there are some ways to get pretty rich... Although they seem to be a little shady and attention drawing. I mean there are ways, but the pigs aren't gonna like it, if they notice you.

That is the kind of outlook that assures the rich are a small percentage of the overall picture.

shark tank... yeah last week saw an episode with my gf and it had these ladies from here in chicago sending BALLS in the mail for 20 bucks...... just a ball that says somthing..... 20 bucks....
I thought it was a dumb idea, my gf loved it... but I think they didn't have any sort of patent or control on the idea. I don't think they got any $.
but seriously, they were making a living from SENDING BALLS IN THE MAIL.
you don't have to be a genius to come up with an idea that makes $

Archie, the other day I saw 2 spongebob sponges selling for $19.95 on tv. I shit you not. These sponges including packaging and sea freight must of cost the company a little over 20 cents. Its so easy to sell millions of units when pitched right to the public.

The main ingredient to all of it is the idea. Any venture capitolist can come in and back an interesting project. It's the original thought thats starts it all, and most of the time its a very ****ing simple thing.... but its the lucky bastard that comes across it first or knows how to execute the approach correctly.

Inventions play jack. You really think people who invent, produce, market and sell products like chia-pet, snuggie, sham-wow make that much money?
Best thing you can do is get an education and sell yourself. Any retard with an MBA can make a fortune in NYC working the VC/PE/WM scene. Sell your mind.
