Couple things: 1. Monetization does not equal profit. Plenty of businesses monetize at a net loss, they just aren't around long term. 2. How investments work does not need to be spelled out, but maybe sarcasm does ;) 3. How do you see VCs (that weren't liquidated out from subsequent rounds) "pulling out" money? Are they going to ask employees to return paychecks, reverse bill AWS or wherever their infrastructure costs are incurred? There maybe money in the bank for operating costs and runway but from the VC's perspective that money is effectively gone.
