"But a lifestyle company founder can get equally rich - just not one huge pile of money at one time."
True. Especially when you consider that investment isn't income. When an investor gives you one huge pile of money at one time, it's not for you, it's for the business.
- encoderer 15y agoSomebody forgot to tell that to Groupon.
- paulhauggis 15y agoI heard an interview with the guys from Groupon and they mentioned paying $14,000 for a paper weight and paying $5K to a guy to stand in a clown-suit all day in their office just because they could. It's this sort of wasteful spending that kind of makes me want them to fail.
