Take a leap in the New Year!

This is a call-out to all #techCEOs! Prepare yourself for a fun, rich, healthy, and joyful 2024. No more worries about making payroll, funding rounds, boring board calls, email overload, markets, competitors, and forecasts. Start to measure life in beach, wave, or green time, not EBITDA. Exit now!

Explore the world, golf, surf, or fish every day, write that book or finally paint that masterpiece, spend more time with the (grand)children, mentor, pursue philanthropic endeavors, or maybe start that next venture… Don’t miss out on the best years of your life. You can. You should. So, I’m wishing you all just a Happy 2024!

Forget about trying another funding round or going public… Instead, consider selling or recapitalizing your business, while taking some serious money off the table. The market rally ended 2023 with the Nasdaq up 44.5%, S&P 500 up 24.7%, Dow Jones up 13.7%, DAX up 19.1%, and EURO STOXX 50 up 17.3% for the year. Tech M&A also closed strong with high valuations, some structure, but mostly seller favorable.

Wishing you and yours boundless joy, success, love & peace for 2024!
