He suggests that startups should focus on building capital-efficient businesses that can reach profitability without needing multiple rounds of venture funding.

“if you can avoid raising Capital you're better off because then you don't have any shareholder pressure to get liquid and that can create contortions in what you do and how you operate the business”

He maintains that founders should focus on building strong, cash-generative businesses rather than strategizing for high-valuation exits.

“I just want to build a great business that makes great products for our customers that's it so if you do that all these discussions around you know giving shareholders liquidity I'm the I'm the main shareholder so I don't need liquidity I just want to build the business”
