- themanmaran 5y agoYea I feel like the whole Twitter thread is just PG moving around goalposts on "What is a business plan" or "what is a balance sheet". I mean his article on "The Equity Equation"[1] seems to be written by someone who has read a balance sheet. [1]http://paulgraham.com/equity.html http://paulgraham.com/equity.html
- stale2002 5y ago> is basically a business plan, isn't? Is it distinct enough to not be framed as such? I don't think a "business plan" is literally just any words, written down, that are related to "business". It is likely a specific and defined thing.
- charcircuit 5y agoA business plan is a plan on what a business is going to do in the future. >What is your company going to make? This question is asking what your business is planning on making.

- blitzar 5y agoIt depends what your definition of is is. afaik there is no legislation defining a business plan. It might say business plan at the top, it might be a whitepaper, it might be a tweet. Make money, lots of money There we go, a business plan, its not a good business plan, nor a traditional one nor even a very comeplete one, but a plan nevertheless.
