I recall many threads of where a product/service/startup got shut down / closed its doors. It's ironic because sometimes it's my first time hearing about that product/service/startup, and I often ask: 'Why didn't I know about that earlier?'. Turns out it's just as well I didn't hear of it before because they're no longer sustainable or operational in the long run. This is why I only concern myself with 'stayups' or products and services that you know instinctively (and through research) they are in it for the long haul.

Out of curiosity, did you come up with 'stayup' or where did you come across it? I'm really liking it.
I recall some article from years ago mentioning it. I didn't coin it. One has to ask: where do all the startups 'end up'?
