Reread my comment. I didn't say he wasn't a founder, but Mr. Shorr's contribution is underrated in the article. He's only mentioned in that paragraph.
I constantly see mentions of boy geniuses in the popular press. He's undoubtedly bright, but it's his access to connections and money, and in particular Mr. Shorr, that made the difference between a mom and pop payday check cashing operation and growing to sell a business after two years. Readers of HN should recognize that it's not through his brilliance alone.
