Best Video of the Day; Johnny Georges Invented A Device For Farmers That Can Save Them 3000% Water for Trees.

Johnny is the founder of Tree T-Pee, a company that sells a simple product that aims to conserve water for farmers. While in front of the panel, Johnny asked for $150,000 for twenty percent of his company. But during his pitch, some on the panelists were appalled by his business practices, mainly because they felt he could be charging way more for his product. Johnny, however, did not agree. He felt that since he was selling to local farmers, he should try to keep the cost down as low as possible out of fairness and goodwill.  
When asked why he isn't making more money off each (he was making just $1 profit per device sold), he simply said this is for farmers. He isn't greedy, he just wants to help. So simple, yet brilliant. We need more people like this, and we DEFINITELY need more inventions like this out there. Not usually one for sharing such things but wow, this is just brilliant. Excuse the obvious 

Luckily, John Paul DeJoria, the co-founder of Paul Mitchell, shared in Johnny's vision and agreed to give him everything he asked for, as well as offering to be an advisor and business partner along the way. Johnny was so moved by John Paul's generosity that he was left in tears and shared an emotional story about his late father.
It is great to see good people like Johnny Georges get the success they deserve.
