Beat The Market By… Eating Steak?
If you want to make a movie, you need millions of dollars in financing and a whole crew of talented people.
If you want to start an information business, a small investment of $10,000 or less can obliterate 99% of your competition. Case in point, the ever-popular social media niche of “Guy wearing a Rolex while eating a steak.”
