Re: Joe Piscopo.
I read his oral interview. Piscopo - the guy when he set out to start a new company, they had a meeting - his uncle knew several wealthy friends and potential investors. He put several ideas on the table. By the end of the meeting, twenty five investors left checks on the table totaling $150,000. That's something at the age of 24!

Re: Joe Piscopo.
Yes, Quasar - That's correct. During 70's Panvalet and Easytrive generated revenues in millions -- perhaps in early years of his start might have given enough to give that money back to investors...
