Our Exit Opp

Dudes, we need to figure out a way to open up the market to dip in Eastern Europe. I have thought about this for awhile and I know exactly how we could market it and everything to set ourselves up to destroy it over there for like 10 to 15 years then sell out to Phillip Morris. The regulators are the only ones standing in the way.

Dude altria has been trying for years. I'll quit my Job if we can make it happen though

If I had asked people what they wanted, they would have said faster horses - Henry Ford
 

Yeah I was just in Australia and New Zealand and there was no dip at all. However they tax the hell out of cigs (they were literally about $25 Aussie dollars in Sydney) and in both NZ and Australia the packages had not only bold letters that said "SMOKING KILLS" but a picture of a mangled baby, human insides covered in tar or some other kind of fucked up grotesque shit.

I don't know much about the Eastern European market. I would think South America, India and China would be gold mines. People smoke 3 packs in all of those places. They don't have dip in Argentina and in Mexico its very limited. I've never been to India or China.

I'm sure the people at Altria are thinking about this everyday. How are they not be in the market? There must be some kind of barriers to entry....
