- Any normal human being would likely sell their company for a significant amount of money, such as $50 million, $200 million, or $1 billion, after a certain period, typically a year, because it is considered a rational decision 10s.
- The idea of not selling a company is viewed as unwise, and instead of striving for something like Cerebus, the goal should be to achieve a state similar to Grok, which was briefly possible with a 35-hour workweek in late 2020 and early 2021, but is no longer feasible 42s.
- Founders are advised to accept acquisition offers, as it is an intensity test, and if they decline, saying that $1 billion is not enough, then they can proceed with their plans, but if they are uncertain, it may be better to take the offer and enjoy their life, whether it is $50 million, $200 million, or more than what they initially raised 2m6s.
