]]> Comment on Rip Apart My Idea #1: “Invest In Me” by Shannan Smith http://www.jaredstenquist.com/2011/01/04/rip-apart-my-idea-1-invest-in-me/comment-page-1/#comment-462 Shannan Smith Mon, 24 Jan 2011 20:05:34 +0000 http://www.jaredstenquist.com/?p=269#comment-462 I think this is a great idea. This is an iteration of an idea I had myself. Like Kiva, helping people start businesses in other countries, I have been thinking of a way to give group loans to students here in the United States. There were several roadblocks I came to with my idea, and I do have questions/comments/thoughts about your InvestInMe idea: 1. Isn't there actually a high risk to the investor (versus the said low risk), depending on a student/recent grad to actually gross that amount of money after graduation? Students are fickle creatures, and the likelihood of them sticking to a career that they've identified right out of high school have to be low (I would have to get that number, but I suspect it isn't too high) 2. What types of students and careers is InvestInMe targeting? A very limited few (doctors, maybe lawyers)? With that in mind, how would the business expand over time? How much money would InvestInMe Inc. actually make? 3. Why wouldn't a student just take out a regular student loan? The risk (and the interest rates) for the student is lower if they take out a student loan. What happens if a student decides to change their major or career? Would that risk be built back into the investment contract, making the percentage of future income to pay back higher? 4. The investor doesn't get any returns until about 6 years from the time they invest (the length of undergrad and then graduate school) 5. Why would a student decide to pay a percentage of their high-grossing profession vs. paying back what it actually cost to go to school? I would have many reservations about paying away a percentage of my income, especially if I have hopes of making $408,000 in the future. I'd rather pay back what it cost to go to school over 2-10 years than to pay out 3 times what it cost me to go to school (over 15 years) to an investor. 7. Is what you're calling equity really equity or more of a bond? It seems like the business model as it is benefits the investor more than the student. ...Just some thoughts from one entrepreneur to another (for entrepreneurship's sake)...

Do you have idea why it does not work with Windows XP?

The connector already is correctly seated as even after cutting extra plastic it does not want to go further. Plus, I can feel and hear the drive spinning. It just does not show up in Windows XP SP3 :( Please help! Hi,

Actually was thinking of this for Erica Leigh to help help launch her new music career. Money would help with studio time, equipment etc... Makes sense that an investor wants to put his/ her $ where there is the best chance of growth. Investing in a person and eliminating that stress, frees them to fully immerse themselves in their passion helping to assure success. Look forward to hear other feedback. Love the blog idea Jared.
