What it seemed like to me reading over the stories of Mark Cuban was that he realized (with the help of some frugal advisors) that he just made a ton of money on paper and didn't want to lose out transferring that into real actual dollars in the bank. It just seemed he had different goals than everyone else: everyone around him wanted to get as rich as possible, Cuban seemed to want to have as much money in his bank account as possible. Two very different things.

>and in turn, demand for storage is slowed by lack of need for storage.

Are you talking about consumer storage? Because need for enterprise storage (which I sell), is only increasing. What is decreasing is the revenue/profit per TB (naturally).

I've read that bare knucke boxing has lower death rates compared to traditional boxing due to the addition of gloves.

FORCE = MASS X ACCELERATION.

The extra mass is something the skull and brain cannot take. Also, the protection of the weapon (hands) assures fights go on linger than in bare knucke boxing. There is conflicting evidence however.

Money amplifies who you really are.

For what application?

I'm almost surprised daily when I see what businesses are doing well, DSC for example. Just about a few hours research a 3 years ago (admittedly too long) and I created a wet-shaving kit that has saved me more than DSC can.

I guess if I really want to create a great business, help people be lazy and not think, only do.

That's what I was thinking. Albeit incredibly altruistic, the CEO's job is to steer and control the direction of the company. Most of the time that it done due to his position, but sometimes that power is wielded due shares owned in the company.

This man does not sound like he should be the CEO.

Well let's brain storm! How can one improve on what is currently out there? Faster recognition and diversion of traffic flow?

How much money would that be precisely?

Worth $886K to whom? It's worth nothing if you can't find a buyer (a la what happened temporarily in the housing markets).
