    Vurlo,
    try your best to disregard bryan. He is a self absorbed, over inflated egomaniac, and an ass to boot. I have run in with hime before and he is in capable of accepting the idea that he is not omniscient. his ideas are the only ones worth having. if you don't believe him, just ask him. He will tell you. he loves to flaunt his many accomplishments, which are pretty vague and apparently mostly in his head. he rarely offers good advice unless you completely agree with him and worship him. there are a few guys on here that do kiss the ground he walks on, and surely some of them will reply here now, although I'm not sure why. there are lots of interesting and intelligent people on here even if he isn't one of them.

    Thanks for the encouragement and I completely agree. I found the most value in your initial post and I have learned much from this thread. When I've done all of the necessary research, I'll post my findings in a Part 2.

    I'm working on a few concepts to refine these ideas. Its a plan that starts with what I'm calling a Seed Corporation. I'll PM you when the thread is up because I would love your opinion.

    Hey Vurlo,

    I recently read an article in Worth Magazine about a guy named John Simon who started a company called the GreenLight Fund. The article was titled "Venture Philanthropist" and since I've been toying with the idea (somewhat similar to what you're trying to convey, and what Mr. Simon has implemented) I think the article may be relevant to what you are seeking.

    You can find the article here.

    Keep me updated with your progress. I'm interested in learning more about ventures of this nature.

    In Success,

    Thanks very much! I'm checking out the article now.

    I saw you added me on Twitter, so I'll keep you updated. Please do share if you find anything else.

    I'm not sure if Simon does exactly what you're seeking, but apparently he's extremely efficient with what he does.

    The caveat is that he has a large affluent network; and also mentions it'll be challenging to implement his business in other locations in which he doesn't have connections. You'll understand once you read the article.

    I'm sure his article in Worth helped to get the word out even more. An issue is nearly $20 and geared toward the affluent.

    But nonetheless, if you want something bad enough, find a way!

    I'm not taking any sides, but I have to respect Vurlo for keeping his composure, something I'm trying to do a lot of times but often fail at haha, I have too much temperament, especially since I have oriental roots.
