Looking at the draft financial model for a social mission-driven tech startup at 1:21 AM on a Friday night after a bunch of bourbon is not… I repeat, not… recommended.

Fun, and wrong, and not recommended. Here’s the tough bit - 70 million people is a really large number, but when we’re thinking about how to reach the nearly 2 billion people living on less than $2 a day around the world, it’s peanuts. There’s a biz model here somewhere, and we’ll find it, and we’ll get those billion+ access to the tools they need to get their lives (and their families’ lives) to a better place, and we’ll make money doing it… but it’s gonna be a bitch.
