    Business Ideas in Non-Congested Markets

    IDEA 
    I live in the UK and I tried looking into pharmaceutical importing as the margins are huge. Unfortunately legislation means that no individual is ever going to be making money by (legally) importing medicines.

    Am I sitting on a goldmine?

    You have already identified the problem, the cost you can sell them for will not cover the cost of picking, packing and shipping them. Perhaps you can make juice from them? Or perhaps there is a cosmetic product that uses these ingriedients? Friends of mine a while back had lots of avocado...

    Whats one thing you think or believe that most people on this forum would disagree with?

    I can't stand that book, it bizarrely reminds me of Catcher In The Rye, maybe it's because I'm not American but it was like reading about life on an alien world to which I will never visit.

    Bear spray / Repellent Idea - what do you think?

    IDEA 
    I knew you'd be the man Walter. I'm wondering, do you think that it's worth trying to overcome the difficulty (maybe another ingredient other than Capsaicin could be used) or is the barrier to entry just that bit too high for the individual?

    Bear spray / Repellent Idea - what do you think?

    IDEA 
    Seems like a good idea, hopefully some more of our American fastlaners can give you some advice, I think this is quite a mature market over there. Perhaps even it would be where you would initially import from. Check out @Walter Hay he is very experienced in importing and sourcing.

    UK Residents How Are You Dealing With Brexit?

    This thread is about finding out new ways to deal with a bad situation. My feelings on the matter are clear and strong, yet I don't want this to turn into a pointless political debate.

    UK Residents How Are You Dealing With Brexit?

    No it isn't. A tax of 20% on all trade has happened directly because of Brexit. Ditto Euri forms, visas, and a multitude of red tape. None of that was there before Brexit. Anyway, let's not get into the ins and outs, you sound like a supporter and I think it best we avoid conversing about that...

    UK Residents How Are You Dealing With Brexit?

    I like that. It's kind of a progression of what I was talking about last night with the record guy. He actually has Austrian citizenship even though he has been here almost 50 years. So we were talking about setting up a registered address in Austria yet still posting the records from the UK...

    My friend has lost 75% of his business. There is no exaggeration from here.

    I love Spain, I miss it so much. Granada (state) is my favourite place.

    UK Residents How Are You Dealing With Brexit?

    Recently I've been speaking with 3 friends who have been particularly screwed by Brexit: The first is in fashion and his supply and a portion of his customers are in mainland Europe and the extra taxes and tariffs are eating into his profits. The second is a musician who plays a lot in...

    HOT! OFF-TOPIC 
    Great question, here's my 2 pence. 1. Socialism is fine, looking after the vulnerable and sick is not a form of weakness or evil communism. 2. Donald Trump was a dangerous idiot who isn't that great at business. 3. Luck is a thing. 4. Being an entrepreneur isn't for everyone. 5. College is...

    Need a 3rd view opinion on my partnership situation

    PEOPLE 
    I think you've already done the most important thing, which is move out. Why oh why would you move in with someone you dislike and/or argue with? Especially as you had built up cash and the business was moving along nicely at that point. It does sound like you need to split and go off your...

    Learn any language while on the toilet (even if your IQ is lower than a chimps)

    MINDSET 
    I would say the most important of those is number 5, talking. Without practice things just go stale. I tried Mandarin a while back and got quite far along the journey. It got to a point whereby I was going to Chinese restaurants just to practice. However a Chinese friend or two would have been...

    European FL members, question for you guys

    Yup, and being able to work in a whole bunch of countries without work permits, visas etc. Oh well, they're finally realising what a huge mistake it was, so we'll probably rejoin in the next 5-10 years.

    European FL members, question for you guys

    I doubt if it effects people in the EU as it does us. Like you say it's probably a matter of finding the right plan. Where the hit will be taken is the roaming charges and calling out of the UK to Europe. So for instance when you go to Europe your call provider will probably give you add ons to...

    European FL members, question for you guys

    Unfortunately due to idiots and racists the UK is no longer part of the EU so the call charges mentioned above no longer apply to us.

    Extreme inconsistency. Any ideas??

    Sounds like you may have ADD/ADHD a lot of people dismiss these conditions, but they are real, I'm a sufferer myself. I've used Modafinil for years but am now on the verge of getting an official diagnosis and am going to try Adderall. Go to your doctor and check out local resources for ADD...

    Advice for E-com product that has a great USP but isn't selling. What could be wrong???

    MARKETING 
    Unfortunately this does not seem to be the case. I had a similar experience myself and was reminded that the market tells you what it wants, not the other way round. In that circumstance my click through rate was terrible, but it was better than the one you quoted. I don't want to be a Debbie...

    Fed Up With Your Country? Where Is Left to Go?

    HOT! 
    Not sure really. I guess if open fascism was on the cards (which I don't think we're too far away from). Then I'd probably look to leave and go somewhere Spanish speaking maybe.
