Most founders treat the M&A term sheet as a formality.

It’s not — it sets the anchor for price, structure, and leverage, and once signed, it’s very hard to change.

Here's a new Bowery Legal apost that provides a quick breakdown of what to watch for and why it matters.

Why do founders need to raise money from only accredited investors? This is so important to know.

M&A deals aren't one-size-fits-all—structure matters a ton. The choice dramatically impacts taxes, liability transfer, approvals needed, timing, and even post-closing operations.📑🔥

What can startup founders learn from a world-class charity auctioneer?

A lot more than you'd think.

@LydiaFenet, the Founder and CEO of Lydia Fenet Agency, has raised over $1B with nothing but a mic, a crowd, and pure sales genius. In our latest episode, she breaks down how auction psychology translates directly to fundraising, enterprise sales, and closing high-stakes deals.

If you’re closing big deals, this deserves your attention.

@broaderic breaks down the basic but critical things everyone should understand about Terms & Conditions and Privacy Policies — what you’re agreeing to, how your data is used, and where the real risks hide.

@Eagles Thankful I don’t have to watch another snap of this offense.

[Warren Sharp @SharpFootball]

if the Eagles lose they have no one to blame but Nick Sirianni for appointing a terrible OC because he's a pal & then not reassigning play calling when it was clear that the OC was horrible

wasting an elite defense because you wanted to let your buddy call offensive plays
