Dear Sebastian, 20 odd minutes ago I sent your son Rick this
E-mail.
It was in response to 3 emails which he sent me yesterday.
If you feel the need for a market study you should have it
done. It will, if nothing else, provide you with a way to explain to the world
why you are not coming forth with “your” revolutionary easel.
As the professor of professors you know perfectly well that
the market study will show whatever it is you want to see.
Knowing that your easel is different enough and remarkably
functional meeting a need that currently does not exist is all the feedback you
need otherwise you would have dropped this a long time ago, at least that is my
opinion.
The hurdle is not the market study or perfecting this easel
to make it cost-effective to get +-100% market share, the problem is Rick and
your relationship because if he was not your son he would by now be fired,
joined the Spanish Revolutionaries and there would be not a single issue
preventing you from having a bloc-buster success.
I could, if need be, deal with Mr. Spelman as effectively as
I have dealt with others of his kind.
The market study will only be as positive as Rick is, and
wants it to be. So there is your answer and you don’t have to wait for
the results to make your decision unless you feel the need to fill up negative
space on your dining room walls which of course you could get Rick to autograph
to mention little of the time you could have spent over the past 20 odd years producing
& selling masterpiece paintings leaving your heirs with more of a fortune
to assist them in failing to be the best they can be.
In other words, you won’t be the first person on this
planet to be enslaved. Raising children is a somewhat painful experience with
its rewards and disappointments.
Love you,
