I guess it is subjective. My company shouldn't exist, much less thrive for two decades. As it stands now, we are already fully booked three years out and mostly booked five years out. If long term, stable, ever increasing income is less attractive than fast short lives cash, then I am a poor example.

Also, I never said I was poor or that I am not doing well for myself. I just said that my employees make a lot more than me.

Please, it has nothing to do with what you were saying, I wasn't attacking you or anything, I added a /s

It can work of the sharks aren't running it.

Oh, I didn't take offense, but what you wrote is also a very common attitude (which I assume is why you wrote it). If I had been playing with other people's money rather than my own, and if I hadn't bet my career on the crazy venture, I might have been more cavalier with how I did things. More, short term keep the investors happy. I guess those are the two big culprits. Unsustainable tactics and a lack of consequences for those making the decisions.

I'm rambling. Sorry.

Thanks for sharing your story which nobody asked for

I mean, isn't that kinda the point of the comments? 90% of why I read them is to get other people's perspectives.

So yeah, thanks for sharing your story, no /s ♥️

I didn't forget my /s I think you got my comment wrong

[–] [email protected] 4 points 3 weeks ago

No, I understood. I was saying I wasn't being sarcastic, and that I genuinely appreciate other people's perspectives. It's why I'm here! 😊

"Thanks for sharing your story, which nobody knew to ask for", perhaps?
