Celebrity TV chef sued by investors
Topic: Current Events 7:11 pm EST, Feb 11, 2004

NEW YORK (AP) -- Celebrity chef Rocco DiSpirito is in a legal food fight with the people who say they financed his television restaurant and who are accusing him of mismanaging the eatery, which they say has lost more than a half million dollars.

A group called China Grill Management says in court papers that it put up more than $3 million so DiSpirito could open Rocco's on 22nd Street, an Italian restaurant that was the site of NBC's reality series "The Restaurant."
...
Instead, the investors say, "The quality of the food and service has been widely criticized" at Rocco's on 22nd Street and the restaurant "has yet to make a profit" -- losing "in excess of $600,000."

Make a profit? This quickly? Investors need a reality adjustment.
1. There are no sure bets.
2. Very few small businesses are profitable in less than a year
3. When you buy into someone's dream, you are wagering. Not all dreams come true.
Show some f*cking patience in your investment. The day trader investing lessons of the late 90s should still be fresh. Sheesh!
