Do you have sources where he specifically says Apple, Google, and Facebook are "far too risky of investments?" Genuine question. I know he largely avoids tech stocks as they're not in his core competency, and he also justifi

How much advertising do you do? I notice you're buying ads on search for key terms. Do you do much display advertising. I'm sure you've figured out the lifetime value of your customers and you buy advertising based on that. I

This seems to be a common trend in the business world. Brilliant engineer/visionary offends coworkers with (perhaps deserved) criticism in an insensitive manner and the company flounders. It's only when said engineer/visionar

You sprinted twice a day? Can you tell me what a sprint workout was like for you? If I do just five 200 meter sprints in a workout, I'm fairly exhausted.
