that word may be a little strong for what im going to write but its all I could think to call this lol...
I can remember back when I was about 16 yrs old my bf at the times brother was talking about mobile(cell) phones...
they werent around back then like they are today. Im talking like 93-94ish...they were around but attached to your car or a briefcase lol...
he was talking about how he wished he could get enough money to invest in the phone satelites because these mobile phones were becoming more and more popular and he only seen them getting bigger. His thought was that theres only so many satelites up there and theyd eventually run out of space and then the value to anyone owning space on the satelites would be enourmous...
we all thought he was crazy.
now Im not so sure...
I find myself years later wanting to go find him and see whats in his head today!
also my dad.
when cable tv first came out in the late 70's early 80's he told my mom. yeah its real cheap now because they are getting everyone used to paying for something they are used to getting for free. mark my words Sue in a few years well be paying out the @$$ for this.
it used to cost under 10bucks a month for everything hbo and all.. now if you want decent cable its going to run you over 100bucks a month!
anyone else with stories like these?
