    Honestly it can happen. I had a friend who was quite nervous about pitching his business so he overprepared all his figures, memorised his pitch to the word. He ended up feeling much less nervous and really confident he wouldn't slip up on any of the details. However he was so diligent about remembering his facts and figures he actually ended up forgetting to remember to not tell any jfk assassination jokes

      I mean not necessarily. Yes, this particular product is worse overall for the environment than a more expensive and sturdier one designed to last for a few years (i.e. most regular, medium-priced beach/outdoor furniture as it exists currently). However, if there are very cheap varieties of beach/outdoor furniture that cost slightly more than the cardboard product but are still cheap and crappy enough that enough people would prefer to dump them at an event after a single use rather than bother bringing them home (especially somewhere like Glastonbury or other events where people are drunk and irresponsible), then those kind of people dumping a cardboard product rather than a metal/plastic product might actually be more eco-friendly overall. Does that make sense?

    She has an attitude, incredibly defensive and not willing to tell the dragons about herself and her past yet she is asking for money from them. I don't get why she said at the end that she doesn't want to disclose too much information and that she has nothing to be dishonest about. You know, there is something about people that say they are not dishonest that makes them seem dishonest.

  • @XXgenderloveXY

    It was the last thing she said that really blew her cover: "I have nothing to be dishonest about"... Funny that, because no one even mentioned the word dishonest, let alone accused you of being so. When someone defends themselves against something nobody accused them of, it's a telltale sign that they are the very thing they're claiming not to be.

      This seems like a common thread with some of the more abrasive 'entrepreneurs'.
      If I were pitching to someone and asking for £120,000 of their hard-earned cash, I'd want to show them the front and back of every banknote the business earned. It almost makes me think these folks don't have a grasp of the sheer volume of money they're asking for. I ask more questions when I'm buying a dog toy from someone on Facebook.
