01The problem

25 companies you know. All of them failed.

Every one of them had customers, money, and smart people. Something still went wrong. It's worth knowing what.

Looking back, the mistakes seem obvious. They didn't at the time. That's why I like going through them: you get the lesson without paying for it.
