Where do you see that? I don't see that anywhere! Obviously, the higher the exit the more successful you are. However, exiting once and getting fyou money (e.g., PG and viaweb) makes a lot of sense. Once you have bank then you can spend the rest of your life working for an IPO. It's really up to you.
- skinnymuch 9y agoThe OP said: > whereas even a minor exit (acqui-hire) How is viaweb anything like that? First off. Compared to the avg modern startup, in pretty sure viaweb took little in funding so founders likely had most of the ownership. And they got $50M in stock of a company that would keep going up for another 1.5 years. And $50M back then is like $75M or more in today's value. That's not an acquire or even a small/minor exit. Also you said fyou money. A minor/small exit wouldn't give you that. A million or two isn't fyou money.
