I am sorry to hear about Nik's parents. Someone else has told very me very similar information which is just so sad. I hope for their sake Nik can make amends. @Vaso – Thanks for your comments.

Also a gutsy effort to have such candor. Kudos. Also - I can never understand why entrepreneurs don't leverage the skills of their investors. In my view the skills are more important than the money, yet often, they seem to have the reverse perspective. Steve. You’re definitely not bitching Clay. Also a gutsy effort to have such candor.
