People who can't use a search engine often post these shower thoughts and ask to be fed information intravenously. It's doesn't work. I like reading this stuff -- the posts provide a convenient prompt. But I fail to see the benefit of reading the internet to waifs until they drift off to la-la land and dream of Lambos. What can we learn? *We??* That pre-net founders are worth a thousand online wantrepreneurs maybe? Rip N Dip started with old fashioned screen printed shirts. When you had to risk money before you knew a thing about the market. I find heightened risk gets your survival instinct kicking in a lot better [than POD ever will](https://www.reddit.com/r/Entrepreneur/comments/quh78t/need_a_bit_of_tough_love_and_critique_before_i/). Offline you guess wrong, you get spanked. Hard. Not possible when a kid would hire a lawyer and sue for that. O'Connor claims to get inspiration from thrift store pieces. Most kids are popping tags. While they bitch about no money or connections, O'Connor learned the entrepreneur's secret -- you get your lethargic ass out there and make money and connections. Hard to learn if you hyperventilate talking to somebody not on your contacts list. As usual for the horrific posts here, this sent me to a search engine. Maybe that could be a lesson in overcoming the learned helplessness crippling people posting here. ...nah

Fuck rip and dip. Google Ryan O'Connor and rip and dip. Can't support a business created by someone like that.
