They don't have the cash to pay their bills. Clearly they don't have excess cash coming in. Cash is still king. They are just masking the cash deficiencies of their business by raising it through funding.

The analysis on his part had to be simple. He has two products right now, one of which generates $2.40 one time and then people use it for years. His second product pays him $1.40 per customer every month. The second product is far more sta

Great comment. I had a professor say often that "cash is king." Obviously these companies aren't paying attention to cash at all.

From what I understand, Apple's concern is circumventing the App Store, making it possible for developers to distribute apps that Apple hasn't seen yet. In short, the concern is viruses, worms and other security issues. This, I believe, is

I would highly recommend no longer using those buckets for fish tank cleaning. At least not for putting water back in the tank. :-)

Understood. They are 1/5 to the way of what most apps make though. :-) I meant there are multiple variables here and they are focused on conversion rate. I'm not certain they are doing that badly there. If they had a million downloads inste

It's a huge decision and it is a completely different world than the consulting one you are used to. The uncertainty is hard but having input (not just being a cog) is unbelievably liberating. No one can answer this question for you. Make y
