BTW I also so want to be one of those entrepreneurs!! But no idea where to start. I have ideas but that's about it.
Dearest moderator:

"Bumping not allowed"??? So what exactly is the correct term for reviving an old thread? Reviving? And just out of curiosity, what exactly is 'bumping' and why is it 'not allowed'?

This'll probably get cut, which is cool but...
1. it's a violation of TOS to discuss specific mod action on the forum - you should just DM a mod if you have a question about how s/he moderated a post of yours.
2. 'bumping' threads is against the TOS but posting to an old thread is not against the TOS. If you have something of value to add to a dormant thread, just do so - no need to say you're contributing to an old thread or that you're 'bumping' it. That term has other implications that don't apply to how you posted to this old thread.

I think I'd want to work withRobert Herjavec - just looked him up to see what his name is and was surprised to learn he isn't even 50 - he seems older to me! Either way, though, I usually like his style and responses. He seems pretty fair and even-toned with a decent sense of humor and humility.

ETA: Just noticed Hulu shows Shark Tank - think I'll catch up on some that I missed

Love the show ! And I thought that the Tech Clothing guy made a nice addition to last night's episode . Having worked in high tech in SV and knowing about the escapades of Steve Jobs (), that guy wasn't that big of a blowhard compared to some of the folks I've met. I'll bet the show just got him more exposure and some additional investors. I think it adds to the show to have a variety of personalities on there ! Good and bad !

I watch it pretty regularly, missed most of it this past Friday, but did see thnegociations with the snarky tech guy. Maybe he just went on to get some easy publicity or because he just wanted to mess with the sharks heads.

I was happy to see the guy from last season who didn't get a deal for his, uniquely, scented, candles use what he learned from the show and seem to have attained some success marketing his products based on that knowledge. It's nice when they show the follow-ups.

More investors? I wondered why his rich "buddy" couldn't loan him the money for a bigger cut. I think the whole reason why was for publicity and he was never going to agree to a deal even if they gave him what he supposedly asked for. I did enjoy when he told the Sharks they were out.

I'd pick Kevin First ... He's snarky and speaks his mind... Just like me ~

Robert would be my second Pick

I don't care for Mark Cuban - I just don't like him for some reason. Maybe it's his crooked smile. He rubs me the wrong way...

HEHEHE, the little guy on the end was mad. I think more should do this because the Sharks can be a bit over zealous about what they say right before saying "and because of that, I'm out".
