Rule of horses. "Hippos" means horse. "Potamus" means river. "Hippopotamus" means "river horse."

I'd prefer the rule of Hippocrates :D Not doing any harm seems like a good maxim for CEOs...

"Hippocrates" means "horse holder".

Unfortunately, they turned out to be a bad investment.

Just like you drop-ship everything else - buy it and set the destination to the customer's address.
