[J20x]

Good fortune? The fact is
The more that you practise,
The harder you sweat,
The luckier you get.

Idea's? We've had 'em
Since Eve deceived Adam,
But take it from me,
Execution's the key.

The money? Just pester
A likely investor.
To get what you need
You toady to greed.

The talent? Go sign it
But first, wine and dine it.
It's tedious work
With a talented jerk.

Good timing? To win it
You gotta be in it.
Just never be late
To quit or cut bait.

Expansion? It's vanity!
Profit is sanity.
Overhead begs
To walk on two legs.

The first step? Just do it
And bluff your way through it.
Remember to duck!
God speed ...

and Good Luck!
