Gmail creator Paul Bucheit: “Most startups are s**t. There’s a few of them that are really exceptional, and if you land at an exceptional one, you can do really well. If you randomly pick something, you’ll probably have a bad time.”

@jackyliang__ Sad!

[🚀Team Breakout List @BreakoutList]

@jackyliang__ Gross profit. i.e. Revenue - cost of goods sold (incl hosting, support staff, sales commissions, etc)

[🚀Team Breakout List @BreakoutList]

A focus on gross profit would be substantially better than a focus on private market valuations.

[🚀Team Breakout List @BreakoutList]

The value of a business is the sum of it's future cash flows, discounted to today's value.

[🚀Team Breakout List @BreakoutList]

Unicorn status / press based on valuation encourages focus on the wrong things.

[🚀Team Breakout List @BreakoutList]

Idea: Anti-Unicorn list. Get on the list not with $1 billion valuation, but with $100 million in gross profit. Much better signal.
