There's an interesting propositon that was passed to me a couple of days ago.

I told Eddie about it today at lunch and his eyes lit up.

Without going into too many details, it's worth > $800,000 initially with $20,000 a month ($240,000 a year) in residuals (if we can reach market saturation for the area). I believe we can hit those numbers pretty easily, as this product needed in that market, and the current product is less than satisfactory.

The take would need to be split 3 ways... sufice it to say I could live on my third just fine :D

We're going into discussion on it with a third party... could be interesting.

Sure, post that and then don't go into details. I call shenanigans.

Ah my dear, 'tis no shenanigans goin' on here. The boy speaks the truth and were we to give specifics, 'twould jeopardise the deal.
I'm about due for some good news.

A broad generalization like that is akin to telling all your friends that you just discovered the cure for cancer (quite by accident) and it was something commonly found in every back yard.

But, you don't want anyone else to know just exactly --what-- in your backyard, becaue you are afraid they might take their grass clippings to the Centers for Disease Control first, and get the credit.

On the other hand, one can picture Bio with his thumb to his nose, waving his fingers at you as he steps out the door to make his next million.

Currently, it's more like "next twenty".
