Entrepreneur's...

It's amazing how many ideas that people come up with and they actually turn out to be successful... So if you are tired of working for the man, crank up the creativity...

T-Shirts... Just when you think the whole t-shirt market is tapped out, this company made over $6 million last year and expect to triple that number this year...

Certainly not a new idea, but a LOT of people have started successful businesses removing people's unwanted junk...

Huh?? Who would have thought? Revenue between $1.4 and $2.3 million??

Ideas are endless... Just need the old entrepreneurial bug I guess...

Cool. Hey, I like those grandma pants, and I would definitely buy the lunchbags, t-shirts and even the fishing lure jewelry (I like to be different). :D

Huh. Maybe I should come up with something. I mean, I make a few bucks selling things on ebay, but I'm sure I could do more than that!!!

Not sure where you ever came up with that Marci, I never said anything of the sort...

Quite the contrary, anyone who works hard will be successful...

These are examples Marci of what hard work and a good idea will do... I still don't know where you came up with the concept in your comment... I never said anything like that, anyone who knows me, knows I have always had an entrepreneurial streak in me... Don't you remember the books Titus and I wrote? The crafts? :)

LOL... Yeah, Titus and I sat at the craft fair for a weekend, I think we did break even, and even made a few bucks, but wow...
