I'll give you Ł50 million dollars if you change the words of the daily prayer from 'Give us this day our daily bread' to 'Give us this day our daily chicken.'"

Since he was permanently disfigured, he settled with the company for a rather large sum of money and went on his way. One day, John decided to invest his money in a small, but growing telecom business called Mixitup Communications. After weeks of negotiations, he bought the company outright. But, after signing on the dotted line, he realized that he knew nothing about running such a business and quickly set out to hire someone who could do that for him. The next day he had set up three interviews. The first guy was great. He knew everything he needed to and was very interesting.

You're in the same position you were before we met, but now it's all my fault."
