		<description><![CDATA[Rodinhood’s comment was that if VC means Venture Capital, it should remain Venture Capital and not Vampire Capital. Hence, the fair multiple was 1x of the principal back and NOT 2x or 3x etc, etc, in favor of the VCs. 1x ensured return of Capital and nothing more if the Company was sold in extraneous circumstances. <a href="http://rodinhood.com/the-three-deadly-weapons-in-term-sheets-that-kill-entrepreneurs">Continue reading <span class="meta-nav">&#8594;</span></a>]]></description>

Sony to me was the best 'music machine maker' out there – Music systems and Walkmans was Sony's signature. Not any more. They got distracted making lots of other gadgetry and Apple’s iPod just lumber jacked them. <a href="http://rodinhood.com/always-miss-the-woods-for-the-trees">Continue reading <span class="meta-nav">&#8594;</span></a>]]></description>
