This story highlights one of the interesting changes in society that has actually harmed women in the long run. When there's a balance of the man in the relationship being the breadwinner, the woman is usually at least a little more submissive and willing to comply and negotiate on pretty much everything. When a woman is in control financially, they tend to think that they don't need men for anything, forgetting that the people they do business with, and the entire world around them is built and maintained by men. It's a level of self confidence and assurance that eventually spills over into arrogance that inevitably comes back to bite them. I've seen too many times where women tend to be poor long term planners financially, and are happy to spend money as fast as they make it. Women nowadays earn money through things like streaming and OF, that provide far too much money too easily, without the understanding of the difficulty of earning it the normal way. Then there's women who are given money from family and spouses, again not learning the value of the money they've been given. The term "easy come easy go" applies far too often.
This not a question of modern relationship. This story is old like the world. She never really loved him, she just seen him as her golden ticket (finance, connections), a simple business goldigger. And it is not an genred story too, a man could do professionally the same, trying outsmarting and kicking out his business partner.
She had 10%. Should have waited it out and sold her stake for millions. Someone who has the capability to be the CEO of a growing company surely has other options for immediate needs. The last part makes no sense.
She could have gotten a pretty good rate on a loan against the shares as collateral. BANKS have all the time in the world to wait.....All she needed was enough money to cover loan payments and living expenses for 8 years. Living frugally at $30,000 a year, even with interest that's less than $500,000 dollars. Not a very smart CEO.
Hell, I would have downgraded and disappeared for 8 years. I could work any number of jobs to get by until my payout. I certainly wouldn't have taken just 1% of what the value was.
This is screwed up the way it starts. Shes selfish and doesn't need the one that helped start the company I'm sure others have done this before, he was smarter than the average investor.
Dumbest mistake she made, aside from all the obvious ones.... Was selling her 10% instead of waiting the 8 additional years. In those 8 years, the company could become a billion dollar company and even her 10% stock would be worth millions.
@@carboy101 That is possible, too. But I'll point out the backer was already a successful businessman and already had profitable projects under his belt. Failure though completely possible, was probably not likely.
She would have never gotten anywhere without him or someone like him. At least she had some stake. There are plenty who would have taken her idea and given her nothing.
@edmonddantes6718 yeah and I recall a reddit story about a southern bell who dates a rich man for decades and had kids but never married. The man was considered a huge asshole. When he retired he proposed to the OP. the op had been wanting to be married for decades and was desensitized so she replies sarcastically. He immediately withdraw his proposal and left her destitute as she wasn't a wife. Their kids fear their dad so they won't help their mom. It's nuts...

"I'm the face of the company!"
I would give her the same response Walder Frey gave Catlyn Stark at the Red Wedding "I'll find another."
This is why you do NOT help women Gentlemen. They say they are strong, independent so let them do JUST THAT
And, sadly most of the time they make out like bandits! This guy was very smart, unlike most guys out there. Think with the big head men!!!
@@garybulwinkle82he said that he was screwed in the past. He was smart not to share this info with her. 😂😂😂😂😂
Yep

nice story, just an small fix. the media would never admit being wrong, instead it would just let her drift into obscurity.
That’s why we sue them CNN knows

She wasn't good with the details.
I would work at McDonald’s for eight years and retire a multi millionaire, no problem .
Nobody has foresight but we do have intuition and premonition
Smart of you not putting her name on any of the ownership papers🍾😎🤘
Dumbest mistake she made, aside from all the obvious ones.... Was selling her 10% instead of waiting the 8 additional years. In those 8 years, the company could become a billion dollar company and even her 10% stock would be worth millions.
That's because she was impatient, she wanted it now, right now, right this second. It came back to bite her in the ass really hard.
Or it could totally collapse in 8 years. She wasn’t trying to risk it like that

You had your chance you fucked it up😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Ah ha ha! This story was hilarious! Sounds like he wwas using her from the get go if he gave her a contract where he owns 90%
She would have never gotten anywhere without him or someone like him. At least she had some stake. There are plenty who would have taken her idea and given her nothing.
