Quoted from bemmett:what has happened is not good business no matter how you want to sugar coat it. I have owned my own business for 10+ years and if I even did 1/4 of the poor promises/business practices he has done when I was establishing my business I would be out of business as would 95% of people starting their own. I hope he succeeds and everything is great but yes I am frustrated as is tons of the owners waiting and they have every right to be.
I think the difference is many (most?) businesses that start-up are primarily risking their OWN capital, not their future clients capital.
JJP had a pretty unique gig in that he essentially presold a few years worth of operating capital....this obviously afforded him some luxuries that biz owners risking their own money just can't take.
Kudos to him for creating enough excitement to have MOST of those investors still "staying the course"....
