    Dan Pena's 50 Rules For Success

    MINDSET 
    I had to be the passenger in a long car ride recently and came across a Dan Pena video. Decided to take some notes on it as I watched.

    Retirement Is Looking Bleak for Millennials...

    Not to sound like a dick but... The amount of time and money that most adults waste pretty much guarantees they will never be financially secure. Pretty much anyone in North America, Europe, and many places in Asia can make a lot of money assuming they have at least average intelligence and...

    Is it just me or is service at restaurants terrible now?

    OFF-TOPIC

    How do you verify demand for your product?

    You can rent food trucks. Also, look to see if any healthy restaurants exist in cities of your size. If they do, and have been around for a while, then your idea likely has merit and you wont need to spend as much time "verifying"
