Search Results: when to let go

I don't know if I should because going public means I have to be held highly accountable to regulators and shareholders, in exchange for theoretically unlimited funding and less responsibilities lol. I know that for a pre-revenue deep tech startup (or even one with some revenue), it'd be extremely difficult to go IPO prematurely but by merging with SPAC, I can do it much faster and easier. Also at least in Canada, there's 2 stock exchanges where they allow smaller and earlier stage startups to join, with much less requirements than say the main ones in Toronto or Montreal.

I'm fully aware that merging with such a shell company also means they'll have control over aspects of my startup that I'd retain had I not merged, and while I'm against merging and acquisitions generally that's an exception. Only agreeing to do this because most sources of funding are gatekept to more mature startups and/or don't provide that much money, which my startup would need to truly take off. I did consider going to angel investors, but the ones I found required startups to make 10x the investment within 5 years, while only providing at most a few dozen grand.

I can't even pay 1 full time employee with that, let alone a small team of them; realistically, I'd need a small investment in 6 or even 7 figures, so sadly only going IPO prematurely is realistic. The startup I'm in is automation, which includes AI, but also goes beyond it with stuff like robotics, IoT, MR, etc as I'm wise enough to know the generative AI bubble that began in late 2022 is eventually gonna burst by the end of this decade. I'm also fully aware that going public means certain investment firms like Blackrock and Vanguard are gonna try to force pushing their agendas down my throat, which I'm prepared for by not giving a fuck about them.

In my country, many states (like many federations) in my country seem to have "had lots of opinions" about law and order in the last decade or two. Queensland, Victoria, even NSW in the 2000s.

I for one have gone on a journey politically and spiritually and in life experience and I for one even during Covid lockdowns and to the present, and even in years prior to Covid - I love my police, state and federal - and likewise I love the trade unions and the Labor party (or any other left wing party, Palmer counts also underneath his public persona surface, ssshh he's secretly a Leftie like me)

Law Abiding Citizen - the 2009 movie - I appreciate how it was originally written with roles reversed, the black guy the criminal, the white guy the lawyer/solicitor. Let's all appreciate that I for one share the personality of the Judge - and Nick to a degree the fictional Nick unlike this Nic here lol - I do believe in a kind, love-dovey legal system - with exceptions because some crimes really don't deserve bail and do deserve sentences, case by case basis as always and the character of a person. After all, I love the legal system and police. Remember, in the Left wing view, my interpretation, which is - it's always about the cut of a person's jib (their character, all the factors). I'm a personality guy.

Anyways - the anal sex joke never gets old. This upload is not mine and no copyright infringe and ©️ anyways again, wasn't my upload. 👀 📱anyways, I don't even own the DVD, yet I liked when the Judge and the Gerard guy were seeing eye to eye "I mean, what's wrong with bail" 👀😋
