Man loses life savings on carnival game.  Wait for the ending.  Priceless response.  Dude spent $2,600 to win an X-Box Kinect.  Leaves with a giant stuffed banana with dreads.

Your Product Is All There Is
continuations: I love meeting with entrepreneurs because most of them are full of optimism and often driven by a big vision. It is then easy to get into a conversation about that vision and how awesome it will be. But therein lurks a great danger and one that both entrepreneurs and investors (myself included) can easily fall prey to. Outside the room nobody really knows or even cares about your...
