Johnny is the founder of Tree T-Pee, a company that sells a simple product that aims to conserve water for farmers. While in front of the panel, Johnny asked for $150,000 for twenty percent of his company. But during his pitch, some on the panelists were appalled by his business practices, mainly because they felt he could be charging way more for his product. Johnny, however, did not agree. He felt that since he was selling to local farmers, he should try to keep the cost down as low as possible out of fairness and goodwill.
When asked why he isn't making more money off each (he was making just $1 profit per device sold), he simply said this is for farmers. He isn't greedy, he just wants to help. So simple, yet brilliant. We need more people like this, and we DEFINITELY need more inventions like this out there. Not usually one for sharing such things but wow, this is just brilliant. Excuse the obvious
