"Unicorn company"? As in "something that everybody has heard of, but no one has seen"? :wink:

Haha, no! No-one as ever heard of us either!


But it was kind of a big deal for us, a startup company valued at over $1billion.

Cool, glad it turned out ok. I'm gone for work and didn't get to see it, the white on dark grey turned out good. How do I start a company worth a billion dollars? Heck, I'd settle for a million.

I'd settle for a lot less than that!

That reminds me of a story I heard years ago, goes like this. Back in the 1800's this fellow paints a sign. It says 'BANK', and he nails it to the outside wall above his door. Next day a guy comes in a deposits $5, day after another guy come in a deposits $7, another guy comes in a deposits $2. After a week and several more deposits, the fellow that painted the sign was so impressed and confident with his idea he deposited his own $4!
That's how billion dollar companies get started, with other peoples money.

Best way to get a company to be worth over a billion dollars is to first have a successful tech company then sell out to Thoma Bravo for $1.35bn

I'll take that!!

For the record, it is not my company, but the company I work for.

:cheers:

So I heard. I was surprised when my wife said someone wanted shirts with my car though.

Your car is a beautiful car, and looks a lot like mine!

Could I get a quote on a BRG T-shirt (medium) with the yellow 7 emblem on the front only (big and centered)?
