If you are rich enough to own a Tesla, you probably also are rich enough to have a second car or to fly. I've been considering getting a Tesla, and long distance doesn't matter that much to me because I'd take a 2 hour flight over a 7 hour

I was identified in 1st grade as being an advanced learner (or whatever you want to call it) and my parents were brought in and were told that I had a lot of potential and if they wanted me to succeed and reach my potential they should take

You missed my point. The owner of the company is adding a value-add of his own and that is where the profit comes from. Any halfway competent executive or manager will get more out of his employees than those employees would have done on th

This is the primary reason I am a single founder. I am extremely passionate about the company I run and have a very clear vision for what I want this company to accomplish and I do not want to have to fight for this vision with a cofounder

I'm glad that you and your co-founder help each other do that. Some people can self motivate, have enough self confidence to avoid startup depression, talk to other company owners in the industry on a daily basis, and have enough cash to hi
