| There must be many factors that go into 'what makes a good entrepreneur'... and many fallacies as well. I'm 60. My background is neither in entrepreneurship, business nor computer technology... but rather a strange combination of cultural anthropology and the arts. A few years ago, out of my interest in cultural evolution I came up with a simple idea... an easy way to think of it is as similar to x-box points but instead of for games... its for political/charitable contribution... (small money, large numbers and immediate feedback as a response to "Citizen's United decision... is more powerful than might at first seem apparent). (Anyway, patent has been just granted for the method. If anyone's interested there's a demo at http://www.Chagora.com which was all I could afford to get built.) My only point here is that whether its because of age or lack of experience or the fact that neither political party wants anything changed I've been unable to get any interest at all from entities I'd have believe would at least have a few questions. Of course it could be just a dumb idea... but I don't think so considering the feedback I'm finally starting to get. But it took a patent before anyone would pay any attention to a 60 year-old, non-techie old hippie... (and bankruptcy, foreclosure and credit ruin). Sorry for the slight rant but its been a tough 4 years. |
