Do you use Intuit software? Have you tried Mint? Everyone I've talked to that has a Mint account and has been forced to use Intuit software in the past is uniformly dismayed and confused by this acquisition.
Banker math surely proves Aaron would have to show real hubris to ignore Intuit's offer, but founders rightly run startups, not bankers. Intuit is a $9B twenty five year old company. Mint could have given them a run for their money. They took the payday instead.

- adw 17y agoSo you're arguing that Mint can make more by displacing Intuit than by getting bought, and that this is likely enough to offset the risk. Fair enough, judgement call. But what justifies it? 'Banker math'.
