I’m not originally from Missouri, so the first time I drove from St. Louis to Kansas City, I learned three things:
- Missouri has a lot of farmland.
- Missouri has a lot of straight, well-maintained roads.
- Just outside of Columbia, you can stop at a store called Ozarkland, where you can purchase fudge, ninja stars, fireworks, and a pocket knife with your name on it. Throw in a bottle of Boone’s, and it’s pretty much everything my wife and I need for a really spectacular date night.
If every entrepreneur had the vision, foresight, and understanding of their customers that Ozarkland apparently has, Missouri would be swimming in millionaire entrepreneurs.
