It really shocks me reading through the posts that people are talking about how stupid his idea is other than how awesome his motivation is. I think it takes a lot to have motivation like this man, even if his idea if dumb, most people will never have that amount of motivation he has.

I do not think you can give up on your dream or your vision. If you truly believe in it enough to try to make it happen, don’t rest until you do!

I think that a smart entrepreneur has to be mature in the aspect that they need to be able to accept an idea that just doesn’t have potential to go anywhere as growth into a new and better idea instead of a failure.

I don’t know that I have the same kind of drive that this guy does. I would like to think I do but I just don’t know. I don’t really like his idea though.

I look up to this person and the sacrifices he has done in life for his idea. I am not sure about his game, it might be great or a total flop. But, being a practical person, I don’t think it was a rational decision on his part to give up whatever he had for something which will always be a gamble. I hope he does well in future and my best wishes for him.

I think he is somewhat into this game. He might have an special experience or event that made him so be dedicated for 26 years. However, spending 26 years for hockey hands game doesn’t seem like a smart idea.

I’m really sorry but this guy reminds me of the guy on Office Space who invents the “Jump to Conclusions” board. And it’s so ridiculous that I almost think he’s acting for publicity like the people that try out on the first night of American Idol (you always wonder if they are serious or not). Also, why would he need to give up 26 years of his life and his job and all of his assets to create something so simple? That’s really scary. If he is totally serious, then I feel really bad and I think he should get some medical help.

This man hasn’t heard Kenny Rodger’s “The Gambler.” You gotta know when to hold em and when to fold em. This I would say was one that he should’ve folded a long time ago. But you have to admire his committment and perseverance.

Never give up when your passionate, no such thing as failure just found ways of not doing things.

but not all people can relate with that. I hope he gets his life back…
