Well, but is there any value there? If you can't even give your old comics away, trashing them is not a "waste". Your 10-year-old modem might still be functioning, but if no one wants it, it has no value.
You're right, clearly there's no economical value. But that depends on the lack of demand, and markets can be inefficient in many ways.
It's not a clear, specific idea, but I'm 'sensing' a big inefficiency here.
Hi, I'm an entrepreneur looking for a startup idea.
In my experience, the reason most startups fail is because they never actually solve anyone's problem. So I'm cheating and starting out by identifying a specific person with a specific problem.
So I'm asking you, what's the most annoying part of your life/job? Also, how much would you pay for a solution?
