What's a business that when you first heard it, thought it was the dumbest idea in the world, and it turned out to be hugely successful? (alien.top)

Airbnb sounded like a horrible idea to me. Who the heck would rent out a single room? Sounded like a recipe for murder.

edible arrangements makes no sense to me. i can’t see how a business like that would do even 7-figures in revenue…

i happen to live close to the founder of the company, and he has one of the biggest houses i’ve ever seen. it’s a literal castle.

so clearly i am wrong lol
