...Kevin Durant: I didn't know that I was going to go for a year. Let's get that out of the way first. If a kid comes out and says, "I'm going to be here for a year," I think it does hurt. It will hurt him in the classroom. It will hurt the team as well, because he will just be focusing on going...
Vaynerchuk may be the best wine salesman in the country, but he's even more interested in selling himself. A kid who franchised lemonade stands when he was just 8, he built his Russian-immigrant dad's New Jersey liquor store into a business that rings up $50 million a year in in-store and online sales after reading Wine Spectator and figuring out that some people collect wines just like he collected baseball cards.

In the longer run, he will surely be eager to take advantage of a market in "parent bashing." In fact, for a larger fee, he will some day be able to go to your nursing home and unplug your ventilator. And somewhere in the underdeveloped world, five or even 10 elderly persons will get medicines they otherwise couldn't afford...
