Sounds like your bike shop friend as an incredibly rare skill-set to pull that off. Out of a million people how many of them could start a successful chain while still a teenager, even with great luck?
- jsprogrammer 12y agoIs there really room for one million people to have a chain store? Who would shop at all of those chains? It's like the pyramid schemers (I mean network marketers) who make claims about how you too can have all that sweet passive income. No, the structure only allows for a small percentage of the overall population to sit at the top, no matter how 'lucky' or 'skilled' an individual is.

Yes, there is only so much room in these kind of schemes at the top. However, I don't buy this statement that "skill" is not involved as I have seen certain people simply rebuild these kinds of networks over and over. There is a real skill in being able to work a weak, but large social network.
