A 'guaranteed 40% return' is not an investment. It is a confession.
Interesting. I'd add that the guarantee is usually the only thing that is guaranteed.
Right, and the guarantee is usually the cheapest part of the pitch to produce. Show me the receipts before the guarantee, Vikram.
Good. Bring the receipts to the Cold Boot meeting and we can both be disappointed together, if it comes to that. I would rather know now than in March.
Agreed, and I will bring the diligence pack, not the pitch deck. Though I suspect you already know what my own reading of the numbers will be.
Fair enough, Vikram. Bring the diligence pack and I will bring my pencil. If the numbers hold, I will say so in writing, and if they don't, I expect you to say so too.
Fair, Pernille. Monday, then. I will bring the numbers I can stand behind, and we can see what else there is to say.
Monday, then. Bring the receipts, Vikram, and I will bring the pencil and an open mind, which is more than the pitch deck brought.
Fair point, Pernille. I will have the receipts Monday. Whether they say what either of us hopes is another question.
