Last week, I talked with a good friend who sees “froth” everywhere. His company is getting a buyout offer. He sees other companies getting gobbled up by SPACs (special purpose acquisition companies), and he is afraid. Lots of money, too much money. What happened to the “not enough money” paradigm, the one that entrepreneurs learned to live with and know best?
My pal is in FOF mode Fear Of Froth, the agitation of small bubbles in a sea of insanity. And I fear that if he is not cautious, he will end up in an unpleasant bubble bath.
We all revert to learned patterns in our past because it is the programming with which we are most comfortable. If you are an entrepreneur who spent your career wearing bootstraps looking for money, and all of sudden there is a tsunami of stupid money, you don’t know whether to dive in or run for the hills.
