Pretty spot on for the most part but I have to disagree with points 4 and 5.

On point 4: if you have employees and you expect them to do their job, pay them. It does't matter if they are 24 or 54, your cash flow problems should not become their cash flow problems (even if they whine like a little bitch).

On point 5: I can't find it on youtube right now but there is a parody video about client work with a lady asking a hairstylist for free highlights and if she is happy with them she'll reward the stylist with more work. That's how that little rant came off (although the employee/employer/stakeholder relationship wasn't clear so maybe it was justified)

I'm on the same page as you. I agree in general with his points but point 4 is off the mark, as you can't predict someone else's cash flow needs. If they are on a salary then you better pay them on time!
