Winning and Loosing as Entrepreneurs

Wednesday, January 25th, 2012

As entpreneuers we all know how the game works.   When the stakes are high typically so are the rewards.  It would seem to me that Obama and Gingrich should not attack Mitt on his success.  Although he only paid 3 million in taxes on 21 million made.  He gave an additional 3 million to charity.  That puts his effective (back to society) rate at almost 30%.  What most people don’t understand is how much risk entrepreneurs undure to make the world a better place and yes maybe make a few bucks.  We die younger, we live harder, and yes we might ruffle a few feathers along the along way. 

Instead of picking on success we should celebrate.  My vantage points allows me to say “Way to go Mitt, How do I do that and do it even better?”  I love this country and I am sad to see people pull down success.  Just my thoughts after the State of the Union and the debates. 

 Also if they really want to create jobs dump employer side Social Security and FICA.  I pay 12.5% on every dollar I pay someone!!!  Come on guys we don’t need tax credits.  We need real cash weekly on payroll……..

USF Entreprenuer Program Business Plan Pitch

Wednesday, April 27th, 2011

First of all how refreshing to see people seeking to change the world! 

I am always impressed with eager young entrepreneurs who are looking at creating opportunities in difficult times.  I was very impressed with the facility at USF as well at Sean Lux the Professor who is in charge of the program.  The pitches ranged from restaurant concepts to clean energy and some needed 1 million to start and other 30k. 

In all of the negative news of America loosing its footing in the world I would say maybe some of these economists should come and see some of the young future titans of business.  I appreciate USF inviting me and experiencing the bliss of new entrepreneurs.  This road is not always easy but it is the most rewarding journey you can have in live.

 Sleep well America as there are eager entrepreneurs creating future industries out there.  God I wish I were 25 again!
