I think he meant he hopes to eventually get some money out of them for stealing his design, and that just one-twelfth of their recent sale price would be satisfactory.
- j2bax 11y agoI'm pretty sure he was comparing the value of their company to his not saying he was hoping for them to randomly cut him a check for 1/12th their selling price.
- reagency 11y agoHe was saying that he didn't even have a grand aspirations as what his product was worth, a smaller payday would have made him happy, if fates had just been less cruel.
- gregpilling 11y agoActually I took a tiny payday in 08 because of health problems - $200K over 10 years for a third of a $2M per year business with 66% gross margins. Nobody was buying or lending any money at that time and the stress was killing me. I was 38 with children and developed arrhythmia. My wife and I decided it was better to risk being broke to being dead. Fates have been plenty cruel, but things are looking better these days.
- gregpilling 11y agoI don't have the money to sue, and I don't think it would be worth it anyhow. It would be great though if the group that bought him decided that they wanted to roll up the other players in the industry. If I get the chance I am selling. We are probably number 3 for unit volume in the industry and the only independent one. It could happen :)
