I guess I was thinking that every business is basically a gambit where you take on as much debt as possible to trebuchet yourself into profitability hoping that an established company buys your out. If you have money to pay people it's by virtue of the debt-buyout cycle. Then you get wealthy by virtue of 6/10 of your dogshit ideas succeeding while 1 of them goes parabolic. Before that it's basically hard gambling on one idea surviving the chaos of business ownership.
