Recently while out for a ride with a friend on one of the most nondescript streets in America, I saw the above sign. At first I laughed at its quaint, in-your-face, street logic. But as I thought about myriad people I know from all walks of life, a rush of friends swished across my mind as I recounted how many talented, angry people I have known in life.

Realizing that their anger was coming from a lack of money with which to manifest their dreams - and realizing that the world is richer than ever before - I thought that it may not be a bad thing for me to adopt as my new mantra: "Don't get mad! Get money!"

I myself have had times of anguish where I'd said, "If only I had enough money, I'd..."

Well, there is enough money available to help a LOT of people have more fulfilling, less anguished lives. We've just got to know where to look and when and how to ask.

In addition, having plenty of venture capital but, little "branding capital" can also leave us in agony.

Thus, this forum is dedicated to the pursuit of venture capital and systematic branding via the concept of "Branding Ventures".

Angels, venture capitalists, branding professionals and those with fundable ideas and\or ideas in need of good,systematic branding are invited to join us in helping people to live the mantra, "Don't get mad! Get money!"
