I run a boutique full service law firm (commercial transactions, corporate governance, employment, privacy, tax, litigation, etc.) (Margolis PLLC).
I also run a legal ops consulting and staffing company (PointTwo).
We call this “working at the business factory” internally.
See it all the time. Lot of big ideas and strong opinions. Needs things immediately and needs respect of everyone around them. No real direction or consistency. Startup or idea dies within the first few months.
Some people are just LOSERS playing business.
They say all the buzzwords ("synergy", "arbitrage", "claude code") and think that talking the talk means you can walk the walk.
But if your broker finds out DURING UNDERWRITING that you are NOT fundable, then you're just a joke!
This makes me so mad. What a waste of Jackie's time!
Everybody has baggage but you NEVER want your baggage coming out:
- unexpectedly (from someone other than you)
- during underwriting
The crazy thing is, most people dont care! They just want to know upfront.
You can solve for known variables but you cant solve for unknown ones!
I bet Jackie would have even helped this guy (she probably still is trying to) but please dont be like this guy.
Dont take advantage of people's good nature
Toyota is relaunching the Scion brand, and its first product is the KEI-01, a tiny truck with a 660-cc engine. The KEI-01 is basically a rebadged Daihatsu Hijet Jumbo, but will be assembled in Princeton, Indiana. Initial sales will be via a fleet-focused trial program, but limited retail sales could come if there is strong enough demand.

And then call your cyber/tech E&O carrier. You will (likely) get breach response counsel and forensic experts to assist in mitigating damages, complying with your reporting obligations, and working with your team to prevent this in the future.
If you suspect you've had a security breach the first thing you need to do is talk to your legal counsel.
Immediately. Do not wait. You will need them to help you chart your course forward and response plan.

Email often isn't valid notice unless the contract says it is, which means your termination email may be sitting in an inbox that legally doesn't exist.
I get asked for career advice regularly. I’ve recently updated my #1 piece of advice:
Optimize for joining a company with a high rate of learning and a culture of experimentation
Things are moving so quickly right now I mostly think this is the only thing that matters
The one thing about Big Law is they always have someone for this kind of shit. The Board probably met with partner that only deals with executives that hooks up with foreign spies on Friday
