[@cooktheant]

As well as this being a good pitch, I liked how he was almost hesitant to name his grandfather as being David Dickinson - this wasn't about name appeal, it was about him as a businessman. Good fo him!

[@oluwaseyikalejaiye5254]

All the Dragons would have still fought for the business if he offered 20% stake in the business. The young man is so smart

[@SL999MUFC]

Bro really had to give 35% of his business, shouldve given 15-25%

[@JoaquinRodrigUEzP]

That's what I was thinking. Since everyone thought it was fair, he should've asked for more (and less percentage of the company)

[@kledmohd4230]

I think he's valuing the business as it is now and not what it's going to be in the future, so it shows an important trait which is honesty.

The question is who the hell is paying £75 for a customised bank card in the first place. Is it really that much of an attraction

[@Mogwai786]

Never underestimate the desire for people with a lot of money, and want to show they have a lot of money, looking different from the rest of the people with lots of money.

[@Miss_PANDAS]

That was the only thought in my head throughout this. I thought I didn't understand the concept properly. I mean, good on this young chap for what he's achieved, but who are the people paying for their bank card to look nice? Insane.

[@AmbientShores]

The bank card business has severely downsized but in fact this was nothing but a job interview.

I would never ever use this service. If I have understood this correctly I freeze my card for some time and send it via post to this company who then will make a new credit card for me with the design that I've choosen and send the new one in the post. If by some miracle the card actually gets to me within a resonable time (like 1 day maximum) what will the company do with my credit info? What happens if my card gets lost in post? This feels like a scam.
