I'll be interested to see where Holmes ends up after all this. My bet is that she joins a hedge fund, VC firm, or PE firm after the dust settles. Only question to me is which ones wouldn't find the Theranos backstory to be a disqualification.
- erbo 10y agoWhere she ought to end up is in jail for fraud, but that's probably wishful thinking.

- Kenji 10y agoOh, she'll be fine. For CEOs it's "fail big, gamble bigger". Only the little people have to carry the burden of responsibility for their work and track record.
- aaronbrethorst 10y agoOh, I'm not worried about her well-being. I'm mostly curious to see which PE/VC/Hedge firms genuinely DGAF about public perception.
- mikeyouse 10y agoWell a large part of the reason she got her initial funding was that she grew up with Tim Draper's kids and he's still sticking up for her, so I bet he's got a nice soft landing for her in mind.
