Session 2 – The Business Plan

Question:
“From the standpoint of business organization, what mistakes do you see people making most often?”

John Powers
Attorney-at-Law

Topics covered in this video:
Starting a business, capital, funding

Transcript:
In working with businesses of all sizes I find that people often under estimate the amount of capital that they need to start the business and also to have in reserve for times of struggle and getting the business up and running. So I would say inadequate capitalization would be the primary problem that I run into.

It’s finally done. This is my 2nd Organization tribute, and this time it’s set to the song Riot by Three Days Grace. I worked harder on this video than any of the ones before it, and I think it turned out very nice. Unlike my last one, it doesn’t focus more on Roxas and gives everyone good screentime. Also I made sure there were no subtitles whatsoever (that was tough). Anyways, tell me what you guys think. Rate, comment and enjoy!

Henry Alfred Kissinger (born May 27, 1923) is a German-born American political scientist, diplomat, and winner of the Nobel Peace Prize. He served as National Security Advisor and later concurrently as Secretary of State in the Nixon Administration.

A proponent of Realpolitik, Kissinger played a dominant role in United States foreign policy between 1969 and 1977. During this period, he pioneered the policy of détente. He negotiated a settlement ending the Vietnam War, but the cease-fire proved unstable and no lasting peace resulted beyond the pullout of the US troops.

Kissinger is still praised by colleagues today. He was honored as the first recipient of the Ewald von Kleist Award of the Munich Conference on Security Policy and currently serves as the chairman of Kissinger Associates, an international consulting firm. Kissinger was the “most frequent visitor” to the George W. Bush White House as an unofficial political adviser on Israel and the Middle East—including the invasion and occupation of Iraq.

Kissinger is criticized and even accused of war crimes, most prominently by Christopher Hitchens, for the policies he promoted during the Vietnam war and for his role in the establishment of dictatorial regimes in Latin America.

An animated version of the OrgLIX audio soundtrack episode “Stickers”.

For those who don’t know, OrgLIX is a parody of the Organization XIII characters from the Kingdom Hearts games.

Orin Drake wrote the script and edited the audio, all the voice actors involved are credited (I voice Luxord) and all animation was done by myself.

Please don’t comment on the visual glitches as it’s a technical issue during the uploading process and not an animation error.
