Why am I doing this? Very simple– it’s a win/win. 117lbs of particulates.

In the case of an entrepreneur pitching for finance, its the same fear that has them putting on a facade and not comfortable in what they do and dont know that will see them a long way off getting funded. Obviously they're not voicing their objections that way, but it isn't hard to read between the lines.

Compounding is not a process that most people find intuitive, and thats as true in engineering as it is in finance, so it requires a lot of encouragement in the early days to stay the course. My most important lesson in refactoring is that small changes, if applied continuously and with discipline, actually add up to huge improvements.
