Millions in no time

From time to time new businesses just pop up everywhere, but from all the businesses that came from the past upto today only a chosen few stood up and bagged millions of dollars during their existence.

Today at the dawn of the 21th century a new business stood up from the rest producing more business and jobs locally and internationally. Here you just need a good equipment(computers and servers to be exact), great minds, great designers, and a great story. If you haven't figured it yet I'll tell you, these are cyber games. In our own language these are video games.

This industry can make a single game bag upto a months profit of Las Vegas. Although it takes a very long time to develop a game that can play in par with the big boys of the industry like EA, Blizzard, CCR, and Gravity. Everybody started from scratches you know.

And as for the Philippines case we are near to par with the big boys. We have a great pool of gamers that can test our BETA games or prototypes for improvements and so on. Some two or three years ago the Philippines released a game that was purely pinoy, yep that was "purely pinoy". That game was ANITO. Although it did not catch international attention it was a great game but it was "bitin", "kulang ang story line".

In this business you can get success in an instant, your inital capital can earn you profits for more that a hundred times. The only major cost that falls in this business are the equipment(everything including upgrades), Rights to publish the game, And the space for the office.

So what do you think? Can this be an escape route for the Philippines against national crisis?

Entreprenuers Everywhere

Since I was just an elementary school boy I already saw young entrepreneurs, some are about my age and some older than me. Once in awhile one of my classmates way back in elementary buy and sells food, as I remember same are candies and junk food. Though being a young school boy I was very ignorant on why he was doing that. I spoke to him once and asked him , "Bakit ka nag bebenta?" Well after a few seconds of sudden silence or maybe shock he replied, "Para makaipon ako, para kung may bibilhin ako wala nang hingi hingi." Well that was my experience way way way back I think it was already a decade ago, I think...

Since then I was wondering about things. Then came high school, to our surprise we had an T.H.E. class (then change to T.L.E. then I don't know kung pinalitan pa) our final project was for a group of 5 to earn money and whoever gets the highest amount gets a perfect 100%. After a few weeks of selling our group had already earned from what I remembered 3k or three thousand pesos. Then after the selling period "nagdududa ang teacher namin" on how we earned cash that big. So what we did was we showed our receipts as for the expenses then what things we used (ingredients for food) after that we realize that it was really suspicious how we got a very huge lead, we have three thousand pesos and the next group got five hundred. But in the end I t was all smiles two of us in the group got a thousand each and the rest splitted the rest (hirap kaya magtrabo with labor yun ha). This happens yearly in our high school conducted by high school students.

But lately when I was playing an online game, I realized that even inside a game there are entrepreneurs. Lately aside from farming (online game term for gathering loots) a lot do BUY and SELL to earn more money, techniques that they use are very common from the usual business practice. Buy when the price is low then keep it when somebody needs something supply them (easy diba). From the real world to the virtual world there are entrepreneurs.
