If you want understand how successful business is good for the economy, send a mail.

I think the whole idea of business has been lost...so many people really do try to just make a buck, the good ones get lost. On top of that, consider huge corporations, not many good deeds get press attention while all the bad always does. If only all businesses and business people thought like you. Frugal, great post!

You're spot-on about what makes a good businessperson. It is certainly much more than simply being able to get others to part with their hard-earned cash. Thanks for the insight, and I'm looking forward to reading future entries! I thought this was a fantastic post! You’re spot-on about what makes a good businessperson.
