There are no secret sauces in RE.   

I just installed some Caesarstone Blizzard (almost pure white) and it stains with tomato sauce or wine.

Huge fan of the sauces.

I don't think there is a secret sauce out there.

Then turn the lots into community gardens were the neighbors could grow veggies and fruits and do it all on the honor system..We see that here in Oregon there will be a little stand in front with freshly harvested fruits or veggies with a donation can ( Coffee can) and you just pull over and grab some tomato's or such and then leave your money in the donation can.. and every few days the volunteers that are tending the garden come by and empty the can.. and use that to buy things to better the garden...

You know, the one with all the secret sauce recipes and "it can be yours for only $25,000!"

It's kind of like picking spaghetti sauce.  

My theory is some of these courses bait you with the secret sauce but want you to pay for it.

There is no "secret sauce". 

Many businesses are worth more than the value of their assets...brand, secret sauce, people, systems, etc.
