I'm quoting myself here:
For a security company, the best way into a CEO's wallet is
through his fear. 
-end quote.

I retract this statement due to a linguistic error. My correction should read:

For a security company, the EASIEST way into a CEO's wallet is through his 
fear.

"Best" implies that selling security products by preying upon corporate fears 
is a morally correct course of action, which is wrong.

The morally and rationally correct way for a company to profit by selling what 
it produces is not the topic of this thread, so is left as an excersize to 
the reader.

Thanks.
