• Risky Business
  Every once in a while, we receive a news release seeking business leaders for a new reality TV show. Because you never know which one might be the next “Apprentice,” we thought we’d share this quick quip:
  
  From the creators of Wife Swap, “Risky Business” follows three teams as they attempt to turn a business idea into a million dollar company within six months. Each team is two wildly ambitious risk takers who are paired up with a multi-millionaire who will mentor them as they experience first hand the trials and tribulations of getting a business off the ground.
  
  The real people can be any pair who know each other: a couple, two friends, two relatives, or two business partners. But as you know, being an entrepreneur is a risky business and the stakes are high so each pair of real people must come up with half the money for start-up of the new company, that’s $50,000, and the multi-millionaire mentor will put up the other half. This makes for a true partnership where the three of you own the new company together.
  
  So, how much of an entrepreneur are you? How much are you willing to risk for potentially huge gains? Contact Lindsay Sobel at Lindsay.Sobel@rdfmedia.com for more information.
