Yes, I've watched that. If they achieved the exponential growth he described I would think they could have found someone to take them public on more favorable terms. I think the video also highlights some concerns, maybe you disagree with me:
1. Budhrani didn't continue with the business per filings, so he's exhibit 1a of who got screwed the most by this unless he received compensation that hasn't yet been disclosed.
2. He was looking for a 1.5m investment in this video. Based on the ownership structure in the purchase agreement there weren't any institutional investors, so why did they decide to pass on this great opportunity?
