Entrepreneurs, folks who risk their own capital to start a business to create jobs, to generate taxes for the Government to spunk, are, unlike greedy public sector wastrels, the true heroes of our age as I noted here. You have to be a true optimist to start a business, knowing that most will fail within a few years. As it happens, I am about to start a new business with my friend C. You will be surprised when I can say more. But to start a business now is especially optimistic/damn foolish given shocking data out today in Begbies red flag alert.

I start with US classic car prices. It is relevant, bear with me. Then it is onto the Begbies (BEG) red flag report, a real bombshell. Then Carpetright (CPR), Bonmarche (BON), Dignity (DTY), RM2 (RM2), Online Blockcrap (OBC) and Character Group (CCT). I also look at today's article in te Times on insider dealing and welfare fraud.
