Sorry BFG But I will have to disagree with you one this one  ::)







The reason is it depends on what the job is that you do.... If the TAX man or traffic warden thinks we love them and are encouraged not to change job then we are all doomed  ;D

Being diplomatic is being able to tell someone to go to hell in such a way that they look forward to the trip.

  wasn't Debra meaden bailled out by Peter Jones a few years back? I believe her holiday parks were on the verge of bancruptcy.

   And she also pes me off on that programme, so as far as her advice is concerned, I'm out.

I just love seeing the people succeed that they havent backed.

It boils down to exposure.  Whether they back you or not.

In the grand scheme of experts, if they were, you would think that they would all agree.  Isnt that what experts do.

Debra Meaden I believe "fell" into the industry because of her family already being in that industry.  Not started on her own.  Another "expert" was another lady that was on there, but the BBC had to ask her to leave because she had had a failed company, and they didnt think it was fit to advise other people.

But I do love seeing people make a success of themselves, without the patriot of money.  Great.

Trouble with Debra, she will not take risks, dosent see a bigger picture.  Where as I think Peter Jones does, he looks further than the immediate.  They are all very different people.

They all have contacts in different sectors, leisure, retail, It, transport, communications.

So they see an opportunity, and think right I have these contacts that I can sell to.

I like the inventors ideas, that physically make something

Yep

Reason being shes not ever started a business on her own, family led

She may have gained experience, notice she never ever takes risks
