A couple of businesses that are most successful during war time....

It's hard to know what to post during war time.... Everyone's glued to their TV screen (me included).

Adam, in an earlier post, wrote about businesses that do well when times are bad, such as during war time. Some businesses which do well in war time are those providing information related to the military. For example, I'm thinking about the membership web site Stratfor , or a publishing company like Jane's which sells a lot of military-related information....

In the case of Stratfor, I know they picked up a lot of new subscribers during the war in Kosovo, and it was probably the same during the war in Afghanistan, and in the present war. Although I don't have any sure way of knowing, I would expect Jane's probably sees the same kind of trends. During war time, there's an insatiable hunger for more of this kind of information....

No matter what the circumstance, there is some kind of business which is catering to the needs of the time. Even during apparently "bad" business times, such as during war time....

Just thought some might find that interesting....
