Oh, if I were a rich man...

Quit wishing: Start planning... Find a way to serve the pblic, earn a profit and have more than a modicum of fun-!

The wealthy know they must put capital at risk toearn above average returns... Can you produce a profit with their capital-? Can you take the toy of wishes and find a use that will earn a profit for others-? If so, your skills and the investor's capital will create a business. The investor will take a risk and share the profits... Are you good enough-? Is the plan strong enough-? Or is it just wishful bar-talk-?

(NOTE: You= impersonal pronoun and NOT specicifally any single person.)

This is the difference between America and Canada-UK-Europe-Japan... The individual can create value from the obvious...

$1,380,000 is a truly amazing price for a 5-seat business jet. One could run a nice little European commuter service with a few of those ... just think of the fares you could charge all those EuroMPs for a return to Strasbourg.

Dale - are you sure they're a UK company? Their website lists "facilities in London, Ontario, Canada and Wiener Neustadt, Austria."

I think you will find London, Ontario, Canada is one place :) Its a city called London in the Province of Ontario in Canada :)

I only know this because I was looking at some facebook pages for RUSH and they played there the other night, and I was perplexed as I thought the London dates were in October :). I know the Newcastle one is a week on Friday I have my ticket :)

Later
