Millenials and their participation certificates.

Don't most teams, even amateur, already have someone on sideline with first aid kit box? I thought this was standard practice.
Maybe they just want the patent.
>>54651988
He could invest it and receive around 150k every year. What the fuck do you consider upper middle class?
He would had made and extra million just off interest by the time he was 20.
By the way, kill yourself, niggerspeaker.
>>54652453
>He could invest it and receive around 150k every year. What the fuck do you consider upper middle class?
Hell, making 70k a year is already considered upper middle class.
He rejected it because his parents wanted him to.
Meanwhile, our new social media engine scores no attention from investors or the media of any sort.. Help us senpai
>>54652446
I don't even see them being used that much. Like you said most coaches probably have a med kit with them. No one's going to spend 6 dollars on a bandaid when they can get one from the coach for free (and he probably bought the kit for less than that in the first place).

Oh my god it's like in futuristic video games where you have those med stations on the walls
>>54652352
It says he's only selling the machines. In which case i'd guess the buyers would supply it themselves, which is logical.
For the manufacturing costs, as I said, I doubt they'd account for more than 500. It's a dispenser. It's a soda machine without the cooling circuits. It's a coffee machine without the brewing and boiling parts.
Its value is the patent.
>>54652632
lol ok
>>54651632
And there you have it.
>>54652799
What patent?
It's a vending machine. It's not like there is anything unique there that people could really need.
There are vending machines which can make a pizza for you, I doubt one that dispenses random knickknacks is that advanced.
>>54652632
Then doesn't that contradict what you said, that anyone can do it?

>>54651530
Dumb fatass should've taken the offer. Now whoever offered the deal will just straight up make their own vending machines and stuff them with first aid kits. There's literally nothing the kid owns except a worthless brand since vending machines aren't some super secret proprietary technology.

>>54657693

>>54651530
This kid is fucked. It was probably Johnson & Johnson or someone like that. Now they are going to flood his ass.
So he signs a deal with Six Flags, let's say. How the fuck is he going to keep all of the kiosks stocked? How is he monitoring inventory? Where is he keeping the product? Who is servicing the machines? Also, where is he getting the product? It's clear that when he was the cute lil' entrepreneur at the baseball game, he was buying name-brand shit in bulk at Sam's Club and marking it up. Is that how he's going to service the machines for a major chain? Retail prices? Breaking down boxes of bandages and putting them into individual packages? J&J aren't going to work with him. He'll have to source some cheap ass stuff from China, which is NOT what people want when it comes to medical supplies.
Here's what's going to happen: J&J are going to make these kiosks. They are going to service them with their huge distribution network. They are going to make the individual packaging at one of their giant factories, straight on the line. They are going to have the name and the clout to put one of these machines ANYWHERE there is the slightest hint of demand. I mean, who is Disney and the local Little League committee and the city government going to trust, Johnson & Johnson or Billy Bob the Teen Wonder and his Chinese bandages?

>>54651578
Why didn't his parents try and talk some sense into him
He should have just taken the money and invested it later on a different project. His current idea seems alright but I don't think the demand is simply there.
So what if Six Flags ordered a bunch of his machines. If a parent has their kid suffer an accident that requires a first aid kit, they're just gonna sue Six Flags.
People are cheap now a days anyway. I doubt he'll be able to make a profit in the end and will have to discontinue the project all together.

>>54658664
yeah...thats literally the point of getting a patent.
>>54651530
(((((( MAKE THE WORLD A BETTER PLACE ))))))
The kid has a design patent. Meaning, you can't make an ugly metal box with an iPad on it. You could still make a medical vending machine.
Regardless, he has raised an entire $100,000 in angel investments. He will not be able to manufacture, sell, deliver, and continually service and maintain any number of vending machines. He would struggle to keep a single one running at the local ballpark, much less sell over 100 to a national chain of amusement parks.
He should have taken the P&G/J&J/medical industrial complex money. $30m for some kids shitty box is a pretty impressive return on investment (crayons, construction paper, patent filing fees, etc.)
>>54658684
Sure, that's the ticket to starting the legal battle.

So it's cheaper to make a several thousand dollar dispenser and wheel it around several times a week instead of paying 2 people $7.50 an hour or just carrying around a box of band-aids at the price point of a box of band-aids?
People are going to look at this and call it out for the lazy gimmick it is. I'd say the CEO dodged a bullet. It's not worth $30 million. Hell, it's not even worth $3 million. The only people who would be interested in this are businesses who don't want to responsibly keep a first aid kit on hand in case of accidents and then gleefully point parents to a machine where they have to cough up $20 USD to clean and bandage a small scrape on little Bob/Susy. It will not be used for good intentions.

Little nigger lacks true ambition. Probably wants to "help people" lmao

Well, you must be pretty fucking devastated by it all, why else would you make this thread?
Good on him I say.
>>54662297
I'm not angry and butthurt about the 14yo. I'm angry and butthurt about the people enabling the 14yo.
You basically have a population of people who are too dumb and lazy to think for themselves or take any personal responsibility and you end up with medical vending machines for school sporting events.
It seems so fucking easy to make cash in tech, why don't I see many people actually doing it, outside the occasional feel good news story like this?
>>54661701
why are you such a fagget
>>54651530
From what I understand he isn't a programmer.
He just has the idea to put aidpacks into a vending machine.
To be honest I'm surprised this wasn't a thing already.
>>54652273
He has identified a market and created a product that exploits that market.
As it currently stands his product is the first and only product that caters to the market.
That is something most businesses won't do in their operational lives.
He is in negotiations with themeparks and other pedestrian heavy businesses for the deployment and maintenance of his product.
The only reason people are upset with him is age and the fact that his very well off parents got his idea off the ground. DESU that sounds like people being butthurt that another fucking child is more successful than they are.
>>54652799
That is inaccurate. His company sells the machines to locations and then negotiates a maintenance deal which includes supplying the machines with product.
>>54653643
I own this hand sanitizer as well.
>fuck, I'm bleeding to death. Damn I'm just 20 cents short or I could buy a first aid kit right now
What's stopping me from stealing this idea?
What's a place for this where people will actually use it?
>Parks
>Swimming pools
>Basketball court
>Skate park
>>54651530
I'm jelly, but no hard feelings.

>>54651530
Neat idea. But he only has until the patent runs out to make the 30 million or foster some kind of brand recognition, because nothing is going to stop huge corporations making the same vending machines at 1/10th the cost and renting them at half the price. At which point he'll be pretty much fucked.
>>54662854
>What's stopping me from stealing this idea?
Legal action.
>>54661628
please educate me on how much 30 million is
is it about tree fiddy?
did nobody hear about the follow up story to this greedy little fuckwad?
http://www.cnbc.com/2016/05/11/the-14-year-old-who-turned-down-30m-now-wants-50m-for-his-start-up.html
>>54662984
Simple math. If we assume that a person who makes 200k a year is considered upper middle class
Let's assume that the person starts earning this sum at 25 and they retire at 60. In the course of 35 years they would've earned 7 million, that is without taking into account career growth, switching jobs for higher pay, investment returns, etc. But the estimate will still probably be below 10 million.
The kid refused 30 million for probably a year of non-full time work. And for what? The slight off-chance that he might make a little more money?
Good on him, glad to see stuff like this happening.
>>54651578
Unfortunately this, if I was in his position, I definitely would have sold.
>>54661701
Good idea!
Not sure if it's worth 30m yet though
What if instead of a vending machine, you have Uber but with drones. You have a drone that you call through whatsapp, and it delivers you a drone. And that little drone cums in your face, but instead of cum, it's boiling acid.
How much for my business model?
>>54662945
16 hours now m8.
>>54661561
I would kill myself for free.
>>54658276
Anon you fucking commie, it costs to make and distribute medical supplies and if there is an emergency the insurance company would probably pay afterwards.
>>54651530
I don't want to make life saving apps. There's already way too much humans on this planet.
>>54651530
Little fat kid > Big fat kid aka average /g/ user
Why the fuck would I use this thing at an amusement park when they have first aid people on staff?
Fuck this little Jew.

Why does this remind me of the movie Idiocracy?
>>54666333
So you can fire your first aid staff and save on employment costs.
>>54651530
>how does it feel?
Like he had better parents.
>>54651530
Shouldn't first aid kits already be available at all of the locations they intend to put this ridiculous vending machine in?
>>54651789
>app that can monitor various bodily functions
>contacts emergency services if you're fucked.
It's possible , although that's not what this kid is doing.
>ill give you a 10% equity of my company for 3 million dollars on a 30 million evaluation
>were pre-production
he hasnt created or sold any machines, no money to produce said machines
he would have to get a deal with medical care companies to stock the vending machines
doubt he can patent the idea of medical supplies in a vending machine
whoever offered 30 million was retarded
>>54663023
What the fuck? Spoiled little fat Mcfuck
>>54651530
>refusing 30m
why do retards do this?
I had a similar situation with a uni friend who developed a mobile app in my country and some company wanted to buy it for $100,000 he made no revenue out of the app whatsoever yet he refused with the autistic excuse of "I wanna be like facebook founder's and start with something small and then make it big, so I am not going to sell it"
retard 3 years later still single living on his mom's basement fucking hell
>>54670105
face it, even if he took the money, he would still be single living in his mom's basement, cept he would have more expensive toys in said basement.
>>54670144
That's still a much better situation lmao
>>54651578

>I bet he saw the first episode of silicon valley and thought he was in the same situation
This. Kid fucked up. But he's only 14, he has the rest of his life to fuck up even more
>not taking 30m to blow on literally everything, especially shit you don't need
>>54670105
Well houses in my country are usually between 100k-200k, yearly wages only like 7-15k a year so he could have alteast reduced his mortage loan by a lot, he could've have had a car and moved out to live by himself OR he could've bought an apartment and lived out of the rent I mean you can do something 100k if you are not retarded
>>54670228
His parents are rich.
His life will be good no matter what fuckups he makes
>>54670144
>>54670252
sorry meant to answer you
>>54651578
Delusions of grandeur. It's common among brilliant, A-grade students while they are young.
Sounds like he wants to become a bigshot CEO with his own 50-story building and everything.

What happens in the first episode of silicon valley?
>>54670525
A group of guys invent a spare tire vending machine, and they get offered $15mil for it. They took it and regretted it.
>tfw he only patented it in the US
brb stealing his idea and making bank
