"Don't get mad! Get money!"
Recently while out for a ride with a friend on one of the most nondescript streets in America, I saw the above sign. At first I laughed at its quaint, in-your-face, street logic. But as I thought about myriad people I know from all walks of life, a rush of friends swished across my mind as I recounted how many talented, angry people I have known in life.
Realizing that their anger was coming from a lack of money with which to manifest their dreams - and realizing that the world is richer than ever before - I thought that it may not be a bad thing for me to adopt a new mantra: "Don't get mad! Get money!"
I myself have had times of anguish where I'd said, "If only I had enough money, I'd..." Well, there is enough money available to help a LOT of people have more fulfilling, less anguished lives. We've just got to know where to look and when and how to ask.
This forum is dedicated to the pursuit of venture capital via Linking Venture Capital.
Angels, venture capitalists, and those with fundable ideas are invited to join us in helping people to live the mantra, "Don't get mad! Get money!"
