Actually they are basic common sense on totally applicable to business. Business is business. Those who do not run a business have no clue. Those who work for the Government are 'Tards when it comes to business.

RE: Business Opportunities
the ignoramus anthonyc, who sees himself as an authority on business because he runs a landscaping truck, gives his two cents worth on business theory. the fool never saw the inside of a business school, but he has to chirp in with his idiocies. well, there are articles which people market which do not have "cheap" and "premium" versions. agriculture is a business. a guy who goes into the business of planting peppers does not offer a premium and a cheap version. besides, services are also part of the market economy. when a guy goes into business as a repairman, does he do a good job for some people, while doing a slipshod job for those who pay less? when will his reputation begin to suffer from the bargain jobs. so, anthonyc, you worry about how many illegals you can fit on your trucks after you put in the lawn boy. leave business theory to those who went to school.

Business school???
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

Business school is for suits.

Go to business school to be taught by people who couldn't hack it in the business world.

Please impart me your book wisdom oh learned one.
Tell me about your business experience from punching a clock.
Tell me how you know markets while working for Tax payer supported institution.
Tell me how you know about starting a business from the ground up
Tell me how you know how to navigate the endless and useless red tape that your type like to come up with.
Tell me how you know more about business than me. Oh Please my pompous SFB.
Then go and insult me. Because that is what you do when confronted with the fact you are a burden.
Proof of dreadlocks Bigotry.

RE: Business Opportunities
spoken like a true ignoramus. yes, anti-intellectual reactionary, who has contempt for education. you might be able to buy a lawn mower and a weed whacker and mow some lawns. that is not the only business there is. i guarantee that you cannot run any successful business in today's world without the input of the suits you disparage. no major business is going to operate without a feasibility study and a business plan. anybody can have a good idea, but, without analytical minds, the idea is doomed to failure. and, since you have no education to speak of, i hardly think you can graduate far beyond grass cutting without the help of financial analysts

RE: Business Opportunities
besides, anthonyc, my favorite fool, no lending institution is going to let you in the door without a business plan. not everybody starts business with some money lent to them by drug dealers. there is an orthodox faction which presents proposals to venture capital lenders. such proposals have to be financially sound. unlettered minds cannot do analysis such as time value of money, PEST and SWOT analysis, Porters Five, and other analytical methodologies.not every venture is a hot dog stand. if guys from business schools are so useless, as you purport, why are all the major players trying to lure Harvard and Wharton graduates to work with them? why do they not just head to Miami and hire some Don Johnson miami vice wannabe with a truck full of weedwhackers to design their supply chain management systems?

Spare me.
I can crank out a business plan in my sleep.
The rest is just way for Business schools to charge high tuitions. In other words not applicable to the real world.
So go back and shuffle some more papers. I'll continue to be a benefit to the economy and pay for your bloated salary.

RE: Business Opportunities
if you lived to be a thousand years old, you could not learn the forecasting tools necessary to predict future earnings. you could not tell the difference between econometrics and a painting on sosua beach. we are not fooled; you are a marginally literate creature, who introduced himself to the forum as having a Doctorate. it did not take long for everyone to realise the true extent of your intellectual and academic deficiency. so keep on trying to demean academics. people were also ridiculed for stating that the earth was round. so, i am undeterred by people like you, the flat earth society, and academic slum dwellers.
