Building small companies is a process with many obstacles. Many new concerns (even with a good business model) can run out of ways to stay above the waterline (for a myriad of reasons including funding).
That being said many here may know finance or maybe even have an MBA and believe that they may know what it takes to truly build something and that Gary is just a bumbler? I strongly disagree, I see a man that has vision, expertise in certain fields and will power to see his vision through even if it requires stepping aside
Gary may be socially awkward, overly optimistic, easily distracted if new thoughts come to mind. Many creative people can be! BUT he is far from stupid.
There are several viable possibilities that may find opportunity to monetize here. If/When these monetize and begin to print.. finance people, accountants attorneys and all other service oriented white collar entities will fall in line as they always do.
In the meantime, there is plenty of low hanging fruit to easily create negative financial narratives with here. Enjoy it while you can. I'm guessing Paradigm is setting up to change momentum. I've done DD and will wait patiently like an alligator for a meal.
