Actually - lenders are quite eager to lend to disruptive start-ups despite their sometimes enormous beginning losses.... take a moment to watch Bloomberg's profile of Elon Musk in their "Risk Takers" series. Pay close attention to the giddy VCs as they describe their willingness to fund businesses that are nowhere near where JBII is, JV-wise or operationally.

If I had to choose between a CEO spending his time promoting the common stock or getting the first few clusters up and running, I'd pick the latter. As a shareholder I sometimes wish for the former, but I'm fine with the latter.

Clamoring about start-up losses without looking at the bigger picture is completely useless - or so say the big hitters that routinely fund those "losers".
