    They were way too critical. I have been guilty of trying to do everything myself too, most entrepreneurs do this but we learn and grow. He was there for that growth and sharing but got patronized instead. Too harsh in my opinion. The guy has done well so far.

    I found the Dragon’s to be very rude and ganged up on him. Of course the show is edited, so there may be some things which weren’t shown. I thought he had some good ideas and good revenue so far. I wish him luck!

    I have a feeling he comes up with these cool names first and then makes a business offer that. And the problem is that he's too good and coming up with these business names

    It's funny when the dragons say "it's impossible to focus on more than one thing" when they have businesses and multiple investments in many styles of businesses and entrepreneurs.. so hypocritical and it puts into question their own abilities to be able to help any one else ever again, i mean come on "you are spreading yourself too thin"

    @@parmdhillon2315 do you think the guy in this episode was doing the work from the 3 franchises all by himself? no he wasn't, so you have made an invalid point, they invest their money, time and resources to the entrepreneurs, they also are invested in loads of other businesses outside of the show, also have high up positions in businesses outside of the show, so my point was it is hypocritical to say that the guy is the one who is spreading himself thin.

    I get not investing but don't act like any great business was risk-free. If he can get over those hurdles then fair play. He's not a child for trying. And if anyone gets hit by a truck someone else has to step up.
