Yes I got that quote from Colin, he wrote a great article on his Building an Empire site about Wyatt Earp and how he made a fortune by opening saloons in gold rush towns.
Serge is a good example of coming up with an idea first, having a monopoly, and then being ready to cash out by the time everyone copies you. (That along with "a little" shaving can make a person very wealthy
