When Alex Craig told his girlfriend his business idea, she told him it was the stupidest thing she had ever heard of. Nonetheless, Craig took his vision and made it a reality. The Texan started [Potato Parcel][1], an online business where clients will pay $7.99 or $9.99 for a spud with a message written on it. The entrepreneur ships the potatoes all over the United States.

Since Potato Parcel was launched in May, Craig is making a profit of $10,000.00 per month. It goes to show, follow your dreams regardless of how crazy they may sound.
