Dragons Den

Long ago my m8 spent about 3 years developing a board game. He thought it was the dog's bollocks and was convinced it would make him wealthy. He ended up having a breakdown and going skint

That is a sad story saddo.

The cheese and biscuits bloke did well to get his product to the market for £17,000 odd.
That took some doing.

When you get other standing there with a piece of bent metal and a bit of plastic that's cost them £80,000 to produce.

£5 for a pint and that will be £2,50 for a minute box of snacks which probably when eaten with beer taste no difference to any of the other million snacls already on the market, Tesco,m and s,j lewis etc have the best advertising brains in the business but ive never ever even seen snacks sold in the same isle as alcohol  ,usually a 100 yds  a part so as kids arnt looking at snacks and alcohol, you,d need pubs etc to pay for the snacks themselves and the difference in beer sales between putting a 20 p saucer of nuts on the bar or a £2,50 biscuit will be zilch

there,d have been no difference between eating any of the snacks with any of the drinks, ridiculous to claim there designed to go with specific drinks, one dragon said they tasted like shoite maybe the alcoholic drink is to take the shoite taste away

The marketing is more important than the product anyway.

But the same as you I didn't think much of the idea.

Didn't he get a dragon to back him?

got 2 in a joint deal and another who was backheeled,winners sharing 25% with a 5% buyback after 18 months ,loser wanted 25% equity with no buy back

Bloke flogging chairs made from recycled plastic at £2,500 a pop. Deborah's in for £70,000 for 15%, as she says she can see Banks, Company Boardrooms, Lawyers etc. snapping these up. Basically anyone who can buy overpriced schmutter using someone else's money.
