| New name for private equity company okay kitties. i have to brainstorm for names for our private equity company. Our old name, which I won't mention here, is outdated and my boss wants my thoughts on something new with more of a prestigious sound to it. my best so far is Horizons Venture Partners something greek or latin would be good. my boss came up with Big Dick Ventures, but don't think we can use that....

| Why greek? Does he want to be like Cerberus and have a cool name? i'm sure most of the good names are already taken. You're going to end up with something like clownpenis ventures or something just to avoid liability. | ||||

| Let's think about private equity. They buy distressed public companies load them up with debt, cut them into pieces and sell the parts for profit... So they are kinda like sharks in that they find a distressed animal and devour it for food profit. How about Carcharodon Venture Funds ( Carcharodon is the scientific name for a shark ) tee hee | ||||

| Think of stuff while looking for availability of website address. Having a cool name is great and all, but if you're stuck with clownpenis69.com, then that would suck  | ||||

| ignoring all idiotic suggestions, i'm actually looking for REAL suggestions. I came up with the ultimate dork name, Eru Investment Partners. I think it's pretty apt. considering boss is also a fellow dork and it's not really "stealing" from anything because it's old norse, I could see it working.... prolly not thou, but I can always dream..... | ||||

| Asking for serious help on the internet is like asking the special olympics team to compete in the real olympics... you might get a lot of fanfare and whatnot, but in the end the results are still retarded. | ||||
