Great write up, thank you for posting. A while back I heard there’s one more piece to the arithmetic: the depreciation expense lowers net income so the rental company is able to proportionally lower taxes this way as well.

Oh yeah. Try an elimination diet that zeroes out sugar and you’ll see how hard it is to find anything on grocery stores that doesn’t have an added sweetener. Yogurt, bacon, sauces are all sweetened (outside of high end speciality brands).

This is for B2B SaaS in the boldest biggest sense. If you want to go indie you can make similar choices to Basecamp (read It Doesn’t Have to Be Crazy at Work) and stay lean and small.

Keep in mind there’s a CRO in the Series C plan and that person is effectively a COO less back office. There’s two issues then - where do you put HR/People Ops and then effectively CFO needs direct communication with HR to properly res

Right… in B2B they can help align basically the entire revenue funnel. OP’s view is a bit myopic.

One use that goes unnoticed is synthetic fabrics. Your polyesters, nylons, rayons, spandexes are all based on plastic. You can actively see the micro-plastics being created: every time you wash and dry your clothes, plastic fibers are being

I’m with ya hear. It’s actually one of the reasons I love start-ups. You get to recommend a better approach to an industry or technology and then go off and do it all while having equity in the company.

I think you’re right and the final point of “being able to unwind trades” is most likely a smaller issue than people make it out to be.

YouTube TV still gets me though. Requires GPS access and won't let me access my hometown sports without it.

It’s true it’s been an experiment since the St. Lawrence Seaway was opened, but there are plenty of native species left in the Great Lakes. This includes everything from walleye, lake trout, and perch all the way down to daphnia and diatoms
