Qwikster!

There are always problems with billionaire owners and founders of companies. Look at the Facebook guy recently. It's when ego and over confidence mix with the drive to invent the next great thing. "They want to hit another home run!" "Have the next great idea."

Of course I could cite you many company CEOs that came up through the company and always made the right moves ("Yes sir!") until finally they had control and then ...

There was that book called "The Peter Principle."

My own great flaw was that I could always make the next great catch. Of "women."
