GP's expecting them to come up short in the long run.

GP is implying that companies that don't are by definition performing poorly by missing out on the margin.

Correct, it's potential that they are paying for GP's discomfort at times

safek | karma 72 | avg karma 1.6 · | 2017-05-15 02:14:00+00:00

That's the fallacy GP is anticipating and parodying.

I think that's kind of the whole problem GP is alluding to

What's the excuse GP is making exactly?

naniwaduni | karma 2808 | avg karma 2.08 · | 2022-02-15 14:41:07

That ... doesn't solve the problem GP is noting.

What makes you think that's the problem the GP was referring to? They haven't posted at all again in this thread to confirm exactly what was meant.

I don't know the answer. But I think it's fair for me to point out that the GP hasn't thought it through either.

If GP had the answer to that, they wouldn't likely be held back.

And? What does that have to do with the GP?

It's a big assumption that the reason the GP isn't in trouble is that they make wise financial decisions.

I don't know what the GP was thinking. Hopefully exactly that.

brokenmachine | karma 3145 | avg karma 0.82 · | 2022-10-12 21:56:38

I think the point GP was making is that it's to be expected, so don't be surprised when it happens.

whimsicalism | karma 14467 | avg karma 2.11 · | 2021-10-13 00:24:18

Yeah if that's the case, the GP seems dumb.

smcl | karma 13675 | avg karma 2.97 · | 2019-08-01 16:42:22+00:00

That’s precisely the point the GP is making

dang | karma 18142 | avg karma 0.25 · | 2021-01-05 01:28:04

It's a cliché. That is one reason the GP comment was unsubstantive.

yurishimo | karma 1952 | avg karma 1.89 · | 2023-07-29 18:25:01

I think their point was to a more general audience not the gp in particular.

philipov | karma 5318 | avg karma 3.01 · | 2018-10-08 02:41:33

I am sure that's exactly the point the GP is making.

It's in the last sentence of the GP
