He claimed that costs would outstrip our margins as we grew. I have to assume he just thinks this is how startups work, because most of the costs he specifically brought up don't actually exist in our market/business model. In any event, if you have an instinctively negative and suspicious reaction to profitability, then as a business person, I want nothing to do with you.
