dialogue: #Person1#: Tom, as the manager of a company selling green products, you are now quite a successful businessman. When did you know you wanted to have your own company?
  #Person2#: My family left Budapest in 1986 and settled in Canada where a lot of my friends' parents were highly successful businessmen. It seems so cool, so in high school, I started a web-designed company and learned a lot from that experience.
  #Person1#: How did you find the money for your present company then?
  #Person2#: We've raised 18 million dollars from about 50 people. We're finally making money. I own 6% of the company and all employees get their shares.
  #Person1#: By the way, what aspects of your life are green?
  #Person2#: I'm only mildly green. I do simple things and I'm a huge biker. I biked cross Canada.
  #Person1#: Do you think you have ever done anything wasteful?
  #Person2#: We're always doing something wrong, but then, that will allow us to learn and grow. When I first started out, we made all the products ourselves, but that was a mistake. Now we work with other companies. We provide the materials, the product development and the design. They make the products then.
