free B.E.E. degree, ( CCNY $26/year tuition over the 5 years, came to $130 dollars, but needed a ‘national defense’ students loan of $3k to pay for books and bus/subway fare to get from the Bronx to 135th street.)

Wow, Mark, huge response to this particular blog. A lot of emotion. As an entrepreneur myself, I think there are a few things you may be too separated from to keep in mind:

1) Banks won’t loan money to an entrepreneur 2) Individual investors (ie. already rich people) are holding onto their money with both hands. 3) Companies are more risk averse than ever due to shrinking margins, no matter how good the idea/business the website plan, so the investment or absorbtion is difficult there as well.

What’s upsetting to me, is that visionary/rich people like you who want to put there money to work, are doing so on more things we don’t need than things we do need. I really can’t wait to watch season 3 of Shark Tank to see the next round of chochkies we’ll get. I love your enthusiasm to create jobs, but I think you might want to take some time and really figure out what the best ways to do that might be. Then when you do, tell your rich friends. Thanks.
