Doesn't that make a lot of assumptions about assets, expenditures, and business model?

If I start a business handing out $0.99 to anyone that gives me $0.90, I think I could easily grow revenue at a 10% loss for as long as investors were willing to fund it.

If your business is selling $0.99 for $0.90, then its costs are growing FASTER than its revenue. You are describing UBER vs. someone like AMZN.
