If you want you company to succeed, you must invest in it. More often than not, the best capital investment is human capital. Invest in your people.

Huh, but I see here that investing in your people hasn't driven your revenue up YoY, disinvest. /s

And that kids, is why publicly traded companies are the devil

I guess it is subjective. My company shouldn't exist, much less thrive for two decades. As it stands now, we are already fully booked three years out and mostly booked five years out. If long term, stable, ever increasing income is less attractive than fast short lives cash, then I am a poor example.

Also, I never said I was poor or that I am not doing well for myself. I just said that my employees make a lot more than me.

Oh, I didn't take offense, but what you wrote is also a very common attitude (which I assume is why you wrote it). If I had been playing with other people's money rather than my own, and if I hadn't bet my career on the crazy venture, I might have been more cavalier with how I did things. More, short term keep the investors happy. I guess those are the two big culprits. Unsustainable tactics and a lack of consequences for those making the decisions.

I'm rambling. Sorry.
