Bits and Pieces: Riches Found In Shark Tank

For those unfamiliar with the program, the reality show pairs businesspeople, entrepreneurs and would-be purveyors of the next great product or service with a panel of "sharks"—businessmen and women who have secured their own fortunes in various industries and who are looking to make sound investments in other projects. The object: to pitch your product or service to the sharks in order to secure an investment or a deal that can take an idea from potential to profitable.
