It's the world we live in. But to say the situation is perfect, is quite simply a lie.

  I know plenty of people that squirrel away over irrelevant details for new businesses and can’t distinguish between relevant and irrelevant I specifically didn’t say perfect I said ‘effective’, and ‘for me’: The executive, board member, and advisor for various ventures.

    You're missing my point. The fact these CEOs are only concerned with profit, and the fact you drew a comparison between these ventures and colonialism .. is a very apt summary. You used the word 'perfect'. It's perfect in terms of achieving these aims, and as I mentioned in another comment .. the style is definitely indicative of the system it serves. However, a lot of the factors involved are very suboptimal in my mind.

      You're right I see now I did use the word perfect. I was thinking about my conclusion, but yes. I can't work with a perfectionist and also controlling CEO. I can't buy shares from one either. I don't want to waste meeting time with one. Typical initial hurdles and their solution: The name of the company on the incorporation documents doesn't matter. You don't need a lawyer to incorporate. Just get the logo done on Fiverr. You don't need a team page on your website. Nobody cares. Your co-founders are not 50% or equal shareholders. Keep most of the shares. Do non-dilutive things. Stop adding non-standard things to sweeten the deal to potential investors. They either want shares or they don't.
