Trump TV follow up

I guess no matter how much money you have, spending $1000 on a glass of lemonade is dumb. Even if you know you will be making multi-millions more. How about this. If you have $200,000 do you spend $1 on a glass of lemonade?

The problem is, to some $200 millionaires, lemonade may not be lemonade. Some lemonade may be better than other lemonade. Not all lemonade is equal. Some tastes better, and some comes with a story. While the $1000 lemonade was physically identical to the $1 lemonade, a different product was being sold. Not that I would buy the product, but I'm cheap, and the story about a guy trying to sell me lemonade would be just as good or better than the story about buying $1000 lemonade.

There is a famous quote about a more democratic drink

"You can be watching TV and see Coca-Cola, and you can know that the President drinks Coke, Liz Taylor drinks Coke, and just think, you can drink Coke, too. A Coke is a Coke, and no amount of money can get you a better Coke than the one the bum on the corner is drinking. All the Cokes are the same and all the Cokes are good. Liz Taylor knows it, the President knows it, the bum knows it, and you know it."
-Andy Warhol

I read a some interviews with a group of semi-famous CEOs and they all seemed to think that using sex to sell wouldn't pay off for the women.

Here is a snippet of The Donald's opinion:

But in an interview Thursday, Trump said the men never stood a chance in the lemonade test and doubted if they could have overcome the disadvantage with time. Hiring attractive women to sell for them might have been against the program rules, Trump said.

Trump agreed with an expert who said that women had better expand their arsenal because one day they will be 40. "I would personally rather buy lemonade from a attractive woman, or any woman," Trump said. But he agreed that a team of 40-year-old women might not have won.

Of course being sexy won't work 20 years from now, but this is a show that is being taped over what, like a month? I would agree that being sexy isn't something that will work over a long term, each of the events in this show are likely going to be a couple of days long tops. Being sexy is like having the best time in the 50 meter dash. You'll win the 50 meter dash every time, but things get evened out in the 100, you fall behind in the 200 and outright loose anything 500+. What is worse is that next year, your too old to sprint.
