  Unchain the ebooks!!!!

  During the Middle Ages and even as recent as a hundred years ago books were chained to bookcases because of their value. But since then mass production has made books very inexpensive, especially paperback.
  
  It is crazy to think that we are going backwards instead of forward when it comes to ebooks. In fact it is just sad.

  Buy cheap, sell high

  The secret for making money in business has been the same since the first caveman sold another caveman a rock: Buy cheap, sell high!
  
  This applies whether you are a 5 year old selling lemonade in front of his house or a mult-million dollar business selling e-books on-line.
  
  I think some business people need to re-learn this lesson.
