Surprisingly, even silly ideas can transform into great business ideas with the proper execution. A guy became a millionaire in the 70's with Pet Rock; you wouldn't think that anyone in his right mind would buy a rock as a pet but there you go, people are predictably irrational when it comes to financial matters.

But the reason we remember the Pet Rock is because it was the silly idea that managed to be successful. No one remembers the thousands of floor tiling businesses that were successful or the thousands of silly ideas that were unsuccessful.
