Generally I've been 100% using other people's ideas but want to have a conversation about it. Didn't every market start out with an idea? For the big money ideas, say private education, there are thousands upon thousands of competitors in that market. Firmly entrenched too.

Now, let's compare that to a market that has never been tested before with 0 competitors. In this case isn't even 5, or 10 competitors a such small negligible amount that they wouldn't even affect each other?
