The people who started this "Pet rock" business made quite some cash, from where I heard.


Basically they knew from the get go that it was a fad, and planned their business strategy around that; they didn't over invest in it or get stuck with a huge pile of inventory (common mistakes for makers of fad products), and so they made a small fortune.
