Sounds nice, but I am sure there would be some employees floating around with families and mortgages and bills that work hard and honestly, that you might feel

  "Go Big or Go Home" is all well and good when you're the only person.. but I think you're right. Once there are a few or dozens or hundreds of people involved, hopefully it changes the decision making process.

    If your principles aren't worth your friends and family starving, what are they worth?

      Potentially, they can still be worth quite a lot. Starvation is serious business. (You might have been facetious, but I'm not sure, so I'll just take it literally.)

    So you would argue Newegg should have folded to the patent trolls? I'm not saying that's your stance, but I wouldn't worry about my employees' future without my company as much, since I am worrying about my employees' future in a world dominated by rent-seeking behaviors like patent trolls. Maybe my employees see the world like I do. Maybe they don't. I can't wait for 100% unanimous approval before making decisions. I certainly plan to try and help them if I destroy the company that was paying them, but that's entirely up to me.
