You should have given more information in order to learn more about your investment proposal, instead you have put nice attractive unrealistic figures.

Everyday, I receive an email like this. The best way would be to actually get our feedback on your idea and then move towards investment rather then put $400 M to start with.....

If all of the people here believe that this is a unrealistic number, then that is probably why you are all still broke and have a Morgage to pay for. If you really want to become a owner of a company and truely want to know the potential of what it has, then come talk to me and find out really what it could do. Also Tommy Hilfiger makes alot more then just $130m a year, so once again, the uneducated always doubts the facts. Become educated before someone wants to come talk to me. Thanks. For those of you who are Business minded and have been successful before, please contact me if you have any interests into Barber Planet. Other then that, we are currently moving with the investors that we do have which has looked at the #'s and believe in what we have said. But I will leave all of the bull for the uneducated and hope that one day you will become successful in what you do yourself. Just remember the quote " The uneducated always doubts the facts". Because they do not feel that it is realistic. Well it is and we will reach it. Thanks everyone for the posts. But have everything that I need within the company, so if people are interested into becoming a Distributor then contact me ASAP. Much Success to all!!

Really?

Do your research please before coming to me with quotes. Thank you. I came on here not to argue with little kids, I came here to meet mature business minded people. And that is who I expect to be talking too. I have Tommy Hilfiger's company report along with profit sales for 2003-2005 and have then in front of me. I only say what it shows on the paper. Maybe you should study alittle more and get an insight before you look retarded. Thanks

Quote "Overall Tommy Hilfiger sales for the fiscal year shrank nearly 5% to an estimated $1.784bn from $1.876bn the previous year, while profits were almost halved, dropping to an estimated $92m from $170m the previous year.

Business was brisk in Europe, where Tommy Hilfiger's European wholesale and retail operations increased by 29%, to $532m. "

They have increased there sales this year in the US up to $1.23b. So again, sucks when the facts fire back at you!!! Good luck in your business venture

You've got a lot to learn you know. Accusing us of being broke idiots with mortages just shows how unrealistic and how uneducated you truely are. You won't even make a million, not with your attitude. This isn't even worth my time, people like you never change. Good luck.

That is right. But you are probably one of the people that I was talking about so I am not going to waste my time. The facts are there, it is just up to you to read them and know that it is ligit. But that is ok because just remember when you see us in JcPennies, you will wish you would have come aboard. So good luck in all that you do!!!

Lets do a break down. We are about to sign a contract with the Army and Air Force Exhange Service for a deal that would supply our Clothes in their 13,000 stores across the country.

13,000X 10 units a day=130,000
130,000x5 Days in a week=6,500,000
6,500,000x 4 Weeks in a month=26,000,000
26,000,000x12months in a year=312,000,000
312,000,000x$10 average unit PROFIT=$3,120,000,000

Might I add that this is just one company of 13,000 stores not counting the Barber Shops and Beauty Shops across the country, not counting internet sales, not counting JcPennies and Hot Topic or Catalog sales. So if anyone wants me to break this down again then I will love too. It is common sense and would love TRUE help reaching it to that point. So as you can tell from these figures that we can reach alot more then our potential of $400m per year. Unrealistic? That is nothing but a far fetch lie that we cannot reach our goal. To those of you how can not figure this out, please don't waste my time in argueing. I need honest people who want to be a part of something great. Not waste my time explaining my business to someone that bashes it every chance that he gets. Jealous? Probably, I don't know, all that I know is that our projections are looking great and the amount of responce we have received so far is wonderful. I look forward to a future of reaching that goal, and then surpassing it through International sales. Thanks all for reading this post!

Ha, good luck. You don't just get respect from us here, you have to earn it. And by earning I don't mean shouting out unrealistic figures that you think you have figured out which most likely won't sell... I mean treating us like people, not like idiots as if you are on top of the world because you aren't. And when or if you do make your first million, we still won't care because you still don't have our respect.

I think you should exclude yourself then.

Your "estimations" and "forecasts" are so unrealistic I'm beginning to believe you don't have an investor like you previously claimed.
