Same to you :) Business doesn't need to be a zero sum game. We can all help each other out if the stars align properly.

I remember back when the banks made loans to businesses, and the business owner was really only responsible for daily operations. It was the bank's money to lose. If the business didn't work out, it was the bank's loss, not really the CEO's.

Now the risk is all on the founder. It is a digital gold rush where the founder must provide their own shovel and pan, and if they don't find gold quickly enough, then they'll starve.

It doesn't need to be like this. You can walk away from the gold mine.
