    Do you think master degree in entrepreneurship is useless?

    HOT! 
    Wait.. Wait... This was a digital course from Harvard for $1,000? Are they actually awarding an MBA? Sounds more like you almost got scammed by Harvard.

    With the millions of views his video has gotten... Have we seen 100 Apple’s founded since he created this? I think it’s an I retesting observation on his part but it is by no means a formula to success. At best it’s a great marketing school case study.

    Do you think master degree in entrepreneurship is useless?

    HOT! 
    Completely useless. Even an associates in “entrepreneurship” is bordline pushing it. Can you name one high profile founder who has a degree in entrepreneurship? I’ve learned more than any degree about business by just doing and learning on the fly.

    Food business/entrepreneurship startup guide

    NOTABLE! 
    I can only see this working in a very small subset of products, mostly in alcoholic beverages. Or maybe if you’re making the next Chex Mix... Throwing a party with influencers is something you do for a new fashion brand, not launching a plant based cream cheese.

    I think Simon Sinek makes great TedX talks... But I also think Simon Sinek has never built a successful enterprise.

    Yeah, I knew that was Warhol, but only because I dated an artist in college. I can’t imsgine any of Burger King’s target audience is even old even know who he is.

    I liked this one mostly because I hope it means that the Bud Light king and all those characters were toasted and I don’t have to hear anyone say “Dilly Dilly” any more.

    Best Whiskey you've ever had

    This is one this I still haven’t been able to enjoy yet. Peated Scotch’s just kill my mouth. Pallet just isn’t refined enough yet I guess haha

    My mouth is watering... Glenmorangie makes a fantastic Scotch. Can’t say I’ve tried their Sherry Cask though. I had another Scotch that was finished in Sherry and it was divine.

    Best Whiskey you've ever had

    OFF-TOPIC 
    To be honest, before I went to Scotland and actually was taught how to taste and enjoy Scotch, I hated the stuff. I compare Scotch to a really full bodied red wine. If you don’t really know what you’re looking for, it just tastes bad. Woodford is my go to for Old Fashioned’s.

    Best option for Ecommerce shipping

    Update to this long forgotten thread: If you ship products from your website, you need to check out ShipBob. I've been using them for a couple of months now and they beat everyone (except Amazon) when it comes to price and ease. I was able to drastically cut down my shipping costs on my...

    Best Whiskey you've ever had

    OFF-TOPIC 
    In July, I made my own whiskey cocktail. I aged some new make spirits with some bitters for 4 months. Then in November I added some pure maple syrup to it. Let it age a little longer. The other night I poured some straight from the cask, added a little bit of water and an ice cube and...

    Any sex-toy developers? A long-shot I'm sure...

    HOT! 
    $400 is a STEAL for a prototype. I know it seems like a lot, but I would do it. You’ll never know it it works unless you try. After all, what’s more expensive: A $400 prototype Or a full production run of a product with major design flaws?

    No idea why I'm here, will I find out?

    IDEA 
    Have you read the books this forum is based on? Not to be rude, but if you read that book and still feel this way, frankly, being a business founder is not for you. Why?

    One thing to also be very wary of... Invoice factoring/purchase order financing firms can sometimes be very collections agency like. If they don't get their payment from your client within 30 days, they'll start calling. This is a very quick way to piss off your new account. Make sure you find...
