Former Startup Founder (Exited 2x) | Alea iacta est “Let the dice fly high”

@LarsenJensenUSA This is definitely true. They largely just want to be left alone and being told you have to do something is always going to be met with an “eff you” mentality. It’s the American way 🇺🇸 But, I think they can be convinced if they know they’ll benefit from it.

@JoelKlattShow @joelklatt Just going to leave this here with no comment

@BillDA Cash is king.

[Cory D. Bailey @CoryDBailey]

@markbdelaney @Codie_Sanchez Co-founded a startup while in business school at Notre Dame. First investor? ND alum. We exited 5 years later. Whether it makes sense is circumstantial, but a lot of value there if you mine it, especially for getting into Fortune 100, consulting, or banking as Mark points out.

@farrowhardy1 Thanks for sharing. Given #6 and the focus on a single trade, thoughts on launching from scratch as opposed to buy and build?

[Cory D. Bailey @CoryDBailey]

@ESPNRittenberg Huh, the middle one looks different.

SECRETARY RUBIO: This is a distinctive and unique evil. It has always been driven by a hatred, above all else, for civilization itself.

It is a revolt of the worst against the best; of the weak and the cowardly against the strong and the good. It is perpetrated by those who cannot build, cannot create, cannot achieve great things - and take their revenge upon the world for their own inadequacy by seeking to destroy those who can.

This is what radical leftism is. It may wear various different slogans and ideologies across place and time - anti-capitalist, anti-imperialist, communist, anarchist, Marxist - but the fundamental character is always the same.

It is a poisonous resentment cloaked in the language of equality, justice, liberation; an overwhelming need to tear down what greater men have built, to wreck what is beautiful and right, on behalf of people who are only filled with ugliness, and have nothing else to offer the world.

Through violence and terror, they once again seek to impose their ugliness on all of us. The old dogma was wrong. None of this is driven by "idealism." It is not "utopian" - quite the opposite, in fact.

One of the criticisms you sometimes hear of communism is: "It sounds good in theory, but it never works in practice." But that's not true. It doesn't sound good in theory.

The world it envisions for all of us is small, flat and gray - leveled of all exception, drained of all that is good and noble in the human soul. It is a world without courage, creativity, or ambition; without heroes or glory or great causes to strive towards. Without miracles.

Without myths. Without men who rise above the rest to do incredible and extraordinary things. Without God.

For these architects of revolutionary violence, the towering achievements of our civilization are an unbearable humiliation - a reminder of what they cannot do or be.

So they choose to destroy. They attack pipelines, railroads, laboratories, power grids: the physical, embodied symbols of power, invention and achievement.

Happy 250th Birthday, America 🇺🇸

💯

[Matthew McConaughey @McConaughey]

bets still on the table America, yet.

[Cory D. Bailey @CoryDBailey]

@RayDalio 250 years of history have taught us one thing… those who place bets against the USA always regret it in the long run 🇺🇸

@AaronSuttles The schedule should be adjusted so the Rose Bowl is the national title game. CFB should wrap up on New Year’s Day.

[Cory D. Bailey @CoryDBailey]

@_ZachShaw Gotta play to the standard.

[Cory D. Bailey @CoryDBailey]

@ralphDrussoATH I don’t watch the NIT. Don’t care to watch bowls.

[Cory D. Bailey @CoryDBailey]

@PEoperator Yep, simple risk mitigation.

[Cory D. Bailey @CoryDBailey]

@_willcompton Tyler Durden called it… “When deep space exploration ramps up, it'll be the corporations that name everything, the IBM Stellar Sphere, the Microsoft Galaxy, Planet Starbucks.”

Now in CFB it’s ESPN that dictates who is in the playoff and who goes to the Pop Tarts Bowl.

[Cory D. Bailey @CoryDBailey]

@KirkHerbstreit @Joey_Galloway Very hard to understand why Alabama jumped ND after the Iron Bowl. It completely changed the dynamic yesterday and made this much more controversial than it would have been otherwise.

[Cory D. Bailey @CoryDBailey]

@AlwaysCFB This is incredible. Lost by 21 and improved? What does that say about your baseline metrics?

[Cory D. Bailey @CoryDBailey]

@jacksoble56 This. Something didn't smell right. There was no way anyone watched the Iron Bowl and was impressed by Alabama's performance against a 5-6 team. It completely changed the dynamic yesterday.

[Cory D. Bailey @CoryDBailey]

@Brady_Quinn 100% correct. These are meaningless exhibition games. Most coaches and fans see it as a way to develop for next year, which speaks to how it means nothing to this season.
