Silicon Valley by HBO Season 1, Episode 5 – Show Review
The Pied Piper team goes looking in all the wrong places for a logo. Erlich Bachman recruits a street artist by the name of Chuy to get some edge added to the brand. Bachman arranges a deal with Chuy for $10,000 to create the logo. The total budget for Pied Piper is $200,000. In reality the logo should probably not cost five percent of the total operating budget. Another issue that is brought up in episode five is that Richard had submitted an entry for the TechCrunch Disrupt competition, and forgot to withdraw the entry. For startups
Silicon Valley by HBO Season 1, Episode 3 – Show Review
During the last episode, Richard and his team were confronted with the dilemma of gathering and producing paperwork for his business partner. The team at Pied Piper is also faced with another company having the name 'Pied Piper' registered with the Secretary of State. This causes Richard to have to use his negotiating skills to acquire the name legally. Along with the poor choice of Pied Piper for a business name, the team has to deal with trying to possibly rebrand and rename the company. Identify for early startups is hard to establish without proper planning. Preparation

The Cross Section between Happiness and Success as an Entrepreneur
Success is a term that can hold multiple meanings to different people. As an entrepreneur, I have found ways to connect success and happiness. First, I started by looking up the Google definition of success: 'the accomplishment of an aim or purpose.' When I saw the word purpose, it reminded me of a conversation I listened to with Joe Rogan on happiness and having a purpose. The video is available to stream on YouTube. The conversation covered a philosopher known as Bertrand Russell that wrote about a groundskeeper with a purpose that was the happiest person he ever met. I do not
Donald Trump Releases 2018 Budget Proposal for Discretionary Spending
When Donald Trump said he was going to make 'America Great Again,' he forgot to mentioned his definition of the word great. The definition of the word great is, 'of an extent, amount, or intensity considerably above the normal or average.' To create a budget that produces results of normal or above average, it would be necessary for business analysts and critics to give it a green light before the proposed budget even made it to Congress and the House of Representatives. Chris Wallace, a reporter for Fox News, pointed out the flaws within the healthcare plan that the
A Look at Startup Culture as an Entrepreneur in 2017
Startups and job growth continues to build momentum in 2017. President Trump has made it one of his top priorities, but with a list of current other issues, it often becomes a back burner problem. The United States continues to drive innovation in different markets with our advanced technology in comparison to other developing countries. That technology gives each person an opportunity to better their lives each day. In the first TED Talk below featuring Bill Gross, he covers data from different startups, and found that 42% of the 200 businesses he surveyed excelled when their product had proper

Zenimax Wins Intellectual Copyright Case Against Facebook’s virtual reality company Oculus
Facebook recently lost a 500 million court case to Zenimax over the intellectual property rights to the software and hardware used in the Oculus product line. After Facebook bought the virtual reality company in 2014, they moved forward with failed projects. This past holiday season the hardware and software was underdeveloped and overpriced. It did poorly for Facebook, but advertisers kept throwing money away with their advertising system. This 500 million dollar loss is a fraction of the profit they made in the fourth quarter of 2016 alone. With the amount of money the company is making overall, it would make
