Cyberspace!
Cyberspace helps those with ideas and no products become people with money! Sometimes they can even offer a money back guarantee. The funny thing about that is, since their costs are near zero, there's not really a risk. The people who send money in will never be less than the number of people who ask for money back, and so they'll just keep the money from the folks who either didn't bother getting their money back or for whom the product, they believe, actually worked!
The double your money back folks, now those are the ones who truly believe in their product. But how they stay in business... how there AREN'T just a bunch of scam artists getting money back from them, I dunno.
Double your money donated to a charity.. that's the ticket. That's the solution. Both business and consumer are taking a risk. The beneficiary, if the business arrangement doesn't work out, is some do-gooder. So that's nice. Then only altruists will demand their money back.
Ha. Altruists. I used to lie awake at night wondering if one could be truly altruistic. Trying to concoct scenarios in my head in which people were purely altruistic, like, what if no one knew about their good deeds, or whatever... but I always came to the conclusion that the person could be truly altruistic, but you couldn't PROVE it.
