Crazy business

Come up with a crazy business idea. The daily prompt asks.

Why don’t we start a TV network that can take actual things you see like January 6th, 2021, and make you believe it was something other than it was. Ops, we already have that.

How about a security firm that protects every school in the country. I mean what parents wouldn’t want that now with all the school shootings.

How about starting a TV network that would tell the truth about things. Ops, we would never get a license now.

How about a company that could take all the gambling away from sports and return it to the people who play and love to watch it for the love of the game itself.

Maybe start a firm that takes up the tremendous amount of food waste in this country and feed the poor and homeless and sheltered animals.

On a large-scale water management for the country. We either have way too much water or not enough just about everywhere, every year. Oh, throw water safety in that loop also.

I hear this country is in need of a new electrical grid. Got to think big at times.

Now here is one I’d like to pull off again. Start a local community newspaper. I know, they all died off. But look at what you’re left with.

Create a device that captures all the ideas we lose before we get to the computer or to a piece of paper.

Just maybe

Come up with a crazy business idea. So ask the daily writing prompt.

This is the first prompt I haven’t had an idea on quickly. Mainly because I don’t care much about business having recently left it.

Okay here is crazy. The business is called All Natural Yard and Landscape. We plant a bunch of wildflowers and let the yard just grow. Cutting paths of course so you can still wander through and to your entrances and driveway. Show up every week to trim paths and entrances.

Still charge like you would if your cutting the whole lawn. You can sell it as being good for the environment which it is and make it seem the trendy thing for all these sprawling rich estates. You make a killing because you can do 10 yards in the time it took to do 1. Plus less wear and tear on your equipment. You get the Green Business Award, You get rich, you retire. Maybe I should tell my son about dad’s hairbrained idea.

Have a great day. And if you can’t, I’ll try to pick up the slack for you.
