I came across this article that talked about Ridiculous Ideas That Made People Ridiculously Rich and it got me thinking about other stuff that we take for granted but someone had to come up with the idea and create a business around it. My imaginative mind tries to envisage the conversation or the sales pitch - first to accountants to get the money to start the business and then to potential customers on how they'd use it.
My top favourites: straws and laces. How did they come up with the name?
What about you? Can you think of any?
