Unsatisfied with your sales manager? No problem –– just pivot and become a magician. Sick of running your small business? Easy –– pivot to a career deep sea spearfishing. Today:

<strong>
It’s a big week for pivots. But what does that even
</strong>
<em>
<strong>
mean
</strong>
</em>
<strong>
? Let’s unpack the ‘pivot’
</strong>
</h2>
<p style="margin-left: 24px;">
Earlier this week,
<em>
TechCrunch
</em>
<a style="-webkit-text-fill-color: #ff5a41; color: #ff5a41; text-decoration: none;">
reported
</a>
that Maslo, a startup that started out as a personal mindfulness app, would be pivoting to become an executive coaching app –– and, separately, SocialRank’s team
<a style="-webkit-text-fill-color: #ff5a41; color: #ff5a41; text-decoration: none;">
pivoted
</a>
from audience analytics to a mobile-first professional networking app.
</p>
<p style="margin-left: 24px;">
News of startups pivoting from one business niche to another –– and often remarkably different –– business niche is common.
</p>
<p style="margin-left: 24px;">
It’s easy to poke fun:
<em>
What do you mean you pivoted your gay social network to a flash sales site, and after raising $336m now you’re pivoting to e-commerce
</em>
? (Yes, that
<a style="-webkit-text-fill-color: #ff5a41; color: #ff5a41; text-decoration: none;">
actually happened
</a>
.)
</p>
<p style="margin-left: 24px;">
But pivots are more complicated –– and more common –– than they may initially appear.
</p>
<h4 style="border-left-color: #ff5a41; border-left-style: solid; border-left-width: 6px; display: block; font-size: 18px; height: 100%; letter-spacing: 0px; line-height: 22px; margin: 0px; padding-left: 15px;">
<strong>
So, why are pivots so common?
</strong>
</h4>
<p style="margin-left: 24px;">
Are startup founders just serial opportunists hell-bent on making a buck? In some cases, maybe.
</p>
<p style="margin-left: 24px;">
But more often than not, pivots don’t come about merely due to internal opportunism, but also due to external pressure from investors –– many of whom
<a style="-webkit-text-fill-color: #ff5a41; color: #ff5a41; text-decoration: none;">
encourage
</a>
pivots to facilitate growth.
</p>
<p style="margin-left: 24px;">
Pivots are possible only when entrepreneurs behind a slumping business
<em>
have enough money
</em>
to pivot –– and that money
<a style="-webkit-text-fill-color: #ff5a41; color: #ff5a41; text-decoration: none;">
often
</a>
comes from someone else.
</p>
<p style="margin-left: 24px;">
Sometimes, pivots end in complete failure. But other times companies pivot past their original ideas –– and consumers often don’t even realize it.
</p>
<h4 style="border-left-color: #ff5a41; border-left-style: solid; border-left-width: 6px; display: block; font-size: 18px; height: 100%; letter-spacing: 0px; line-height: 22px; margin: 0px; padding-left: 15px;">
<strong>
A surprising number of well-known businesses resulted from pivots
</strong>
</h4>
<p style="margin-left: 24px;">
Here are some other noteworthy companies that pivoted their way to productivity:
</p>
<ul style="font-family: Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; line-height: 20px; margin: 0 0 0 30px; padding-bottom: 14px; padding-left: 12px;">
<li style="font-size: 16px; line-height: 20px; padding: 4px 0;">
<strong>
Wrigley
</strong>
started out as a soap company that gave away free
<a style="color: #ff5a41; text-decoration: none;">
baking powder
</a>
and then pivoted to a baking powder company that gave away free gum and then pivoted
<em>
again
</em>
to focus on the sweet stuff.
</li>
<li style="font-size: 16px; line-height: 20px; padding: 4px 0;">
<strong>
Avon’s
</strong>
founder started out as a
<a style="color: #ff5a41; text-decoration: none;">
bookseller
</a>
who attracted buyers with perfume samples before pivoting to launch a cosmetics company (and, arguably, a
<a style="color: #ff5a41; text-decoration: none;">
multi-level marketing
</a>
operation).
</li>
<li style="font-size: 16px; line-height: 20px; padding: 4px 0;">
<strong>
Suzuki
</strong>
began as company that
<a style="color: #ff5a41; text-decoration: none;">
built looms for silk weaving
</a>
before pivoting to motorcycles and other machines.
</li>
<li style="font-size: 16px; line-height: 20px; padding: 4px 0;">
<strong>
YouTube
</strong>
started out as
<a style="color: #ff5a41; text-decoration: none;">
a dating app
</a>

The hottest trend among the super-rich? Safe-deposit boxes
</strong>
</h2>
<p style="margin-left: 24px;">
Safe-deposit boxes hidden in subterranean bank vaults are no longer just for European spy movies.
</p>
<p style="margin-left: 24px;">
Their demand is steadily increasing among the super-rich, according to
<a style="-webkit-text-fill-color: #ff5a41; color: #ff5a41; text-decoration: none;">
<em>
Bloomberg
</em>
</a>
. Billionaires and millionaires fear recession and climate change and just want some security for their cash, art, and jewels –– security that can cost as much as a mansion.
</p>
<h4 style="border-left-color: #ff5a41; border-left-style: solid; border-left-width: 6px; display: block; font-size: 18px; height: 100%; letter-spacing: 0px; line-height: 22px; margin: 0px; padding-left: 15px;">
<strong>
That’s right. People are paying millions to store millions
</strong>
</h4>
<p style="margin-left: 24px;">
At one private club in London, the firm IBV International Vaults offers apartment-size storage areas for $3.2m a year and has been getting calls from interested people every week. Prices aren’t quite as high elsewhere: Some safe-deposit boxes in Switzerland are going for ~$5k a year.
</p>
<p style="margin-left: 24px;">
In Switzerland, which has a population of 8.5m, one wealth management branch alone has 250k boxes. A precious metals dealer in Zurich has been renting five safe-deposit boxes a day, and the dealer expects its supply of 1k boxes to be gone soon.
</p>
<h4 style="border-left-color: #ff5a41; border-left-style: solid; border-left-width: 6px; display: block; font-size: 18px; height: 100%; letter-spacing: 0px; line-height: 22px; margin: 0px; padding-left: 15px;">
<strong>
As illicit as you would think
</strong>
</h4>
<p style="margin-left: 24px;">
Safe-deposit boxes are often more about gaming the system than security. In Switzerland, lawmakers have questioned whether the safe-deposit boxes offered by non-banking entities are havens for money launderers.
</p>
<p style="margin-left: 24px;">
In the US, where banks have stopped installing safe-deposit boxes as more people store sensitive documents electronically, many people who use them are involved with cannabis. Because the federal government still bans weed, marijuana companies need a place to stash their other kind of green.

Dying to binge all 8 Star Wars before the final release? Not a problem -- ViewSonic equipped the M1 Mini with a battery pack (that means no extension cords required) and a built-in JBL speaker, so a whole movie marathon can fit in your jeans. Dope.

11 biotech companies

filed for bankruptcy
</a>
this year, which makes 2019 biotech’s worst year in a decade. Until now, it’s been almost impossible for well-funded biotech companies to fail. But a number of issues ranging from dangerous drugs to unsavory characters have shown that even medicine isn’t too big to fail. So just what went down?

OxyContin maker Purdue Pharma is perhaps the most notable name to
<a style="-webkit-text-fill-color: #ff5a41; color: #ff5a41; text-decoration: none;">
go down
</a>
. Legal liabilities stemming from the opioid crisis have finally fatally bitten this once high-flying bad boy in the ass. Its bankruptcy filing seeks to settle a whopping 2.6k federal and state lawsuits by dedicating all company assets to the betterment of the American public.
</p>
<p style="margin-left: 24px;">
But this isn’t a done deal. Numerous states don’t wanna settle, and argue that Purdue’s assessed value of $10B is based on “optimistic calculations.” In the midst of an epidemic that claims thousands of lives, ain’t nobody got time for that. Other opioid makers are nervously
<a style="-webkit-text-fill-color: #ff5a41; color: #ff5a41; text-decoration: none;">
on notice

sentenced

to 7 years in prison on federal fraud charges… but not before he purchased a single-copy Wu-Tang Clan album for $2m and raised the price of a 60-year-old drug by 5k%.
</p>
<p style="margin-left: 24px;">
One offense was simply cultural — how does a wanker like that abscond with such a prize?
</p>
<p style="margin-left: 24px;">
The other was far more serious. Daraprim is a life-saving drug used to treat complications in HIV/AIDS and cancer patients. Under Shrkeli’s leadership, it went from $13.50/pill to $750/pill. Shkreli argued he was acting in the best interest of investors, but c’mon.

Autonomous wheelchairs are hitting airports in North America.

A Japanese company called WHILL, which has already launched autonomous wheelchairs in Abu Dhabi, Amsterdam, and Tokyo, will

What the hell is going on with children’s books in Baltimore?
</strong>
A former Baltimore mayor wrote a children’s book series called “Healthy Holly” (
