Andrea Junker @strandjunker.com · 26/12/2024I need someone to explain to me why it’s always “if you can’t pay rent, buy fewer lattes and avocado toasts” and not “if you can’t pay your employees a living wage, buy fewer yachts and real estate”. Explain it to me like I’m in kindergarten. 726244345678

In the same way when you raise equity capital to get/keep a business going you must pay a return, adjusted for the risk of the investment. If you cannot do this the people who have the capital will invest their money elsewhere. 010
