A story, by Cheeky Kid: Henry Ford: I think my new invention the "automobile" is going to be a big hit. I am looking for investors with a vision, so I am offering you 20,000 shares for 500 dollars. Mr. Complicated: HAHAHAHAH, you looser, who are going to buy your automobiles? Where are they going to drive them? You are a looser. Henry Ford: Suit yourself, I see a automobile in ever front / back yard in the USA. I see roads all over the USA, roads over mountains, more roads than railways. I see businesses being started that haven't even been dreamed up yet all because of my invention. I see many people getting rich from my invention for hundreds of years to come. I think I have a winner on my hands. Mr. Complicated: You think people are going to pay 600 bucks for an automobile? HAHAHAHAH, I am going to invest my money in horseshoes. You know NOTHING about business. No one is going to buy your automobile chump.
