On a tangent, and I’m just spitballing here, how is this for a business idea. I: have a PhD (which is not to say I’m smart, it is just to say I have been exposed to lots of facts that other people may not have been exposed to), and I have a bunch of ideas that may or may not be good ones, but I’m too risk-averse to act on any of them and start a business. You: have a bunch of money and are open to ideas. So you pay me, say, $100 bucks to just vomit my ideas out during a 15 minute phone call. Like a cheap loot box of ideas, most of which have a low probability of success, but there may be a nugget of gold in there.
- rwmj 4y agoThe thing you learn from start-ups is that ideas are worth nothing. It's execution that matters. But ... if you were an oracle (religious, not database) who sometimes foretold the future, would there be a marketplace for your ideas? In 2003 if you described a social network would that be valuable information? I tend to think no since there were social networks before Facebook but FB were lucky and executed very well.

- pb7 4y agoThere were plenty of social networks before Facebook with MySpace being the biggest.
