It's not as common to be the people who start the next Google or Microsoft, more likely somebody says, "Hey, I love chocolate, and I love hot dogs..." and BOOM Chocodog is born. Damn, I may even regret writing THAT. Better get a copyright on that bad boy asap. That’s quite clever and seriously relevant.

Still going strong from February. It's amazing when you start something that people haven't seen before. I went from 0 to almost 100,000 visitors in the past three weeks. The sales have been damn good too. Michael - I was going to send you some samples for the fun of it, but you keep your physical address stuff pretty private online :-) -- let me know (via email) if you want to send some as a prank to someone, my treat.

This might be the kind of thing that everyone (men) would like to do, but few would spend their own money on - like VIP boxes. It might be a real cash cow if you targeted groups who could use other peoples money - congressmen, governors, televangelists, presidents for example - of course the amenities might need to have an option to include a companion. Maybe corporate lobbyists are the customers to target. Gotta be creative. @tke РDid he identify and effectively market to the right client̬le?

If you don't like the motel quality, charter a flight. But honestly, the whole point is that you're doing something you're not suppose to be doing and that you might get caught. It's preferably with someone 1) you don't know, who's 2) hot and 3) you just met on the plane. Ideally that person is a stewardess. People who pay for a service to do it are just looking for a loop hole to "technically" join the club. If you're gonna do it, just do it. There is a service as kid disco points out.

You want to pitch it as a luxury once in a lifetime experience. Beautifully appointed and detailed cabin, pair it with limo service, roses, the whole enchilada kid disco » heh pretty funny ;-)
