And what I'm trying to do there is,
take my capital and amplify it with my network and my experience.
So you need to take 75 K worth of capital, but then I'm working with you.
I'm putting a day into your business and a day a week.
And the goal would be for six to nine months to work with you to really scale that up and then bring a deterministic business model to an institutional investor with upside so that they could go in and get you your one to two to 3 million in your, you know, your, your,
seed round or your series a and then i can step away hire my my fire myself hire my replacement and you guys can go the founder can go build hopefully uh you know an eight-figure business i want to talk more about that in a second but first tell us about your most spectacular fail with the biggest explosion the hottest flames what just blew up in your face the worst
well that would be right after i uh i kind of i worked and sold the first company in the late 90s um as part of a technical team there that did real-time operating systems um and you know we got acquired by a semiconductor vendor and then went public on the london stock exchange
And then I left that firm and decided to try to start something out on my own and proceeded to get sued by my previous company.
Was that techsupport.ca?
No, no, that was in between and got sued by my previous company.
What else happened?
Yeah, well, the person that acquired Precise sued me.
Non-compete or what?
What's that?
Non-compete and intellectual property infringement.
Interesting.
Both of which, you know, frankly, I didn't believe I was doing.
Well, it's the funny thing I learned about that process is it doesn't matter if you're right or wrong.
No, totally.
It just puts you on the sidelines.
