Really, you want to buy us?

October 23rd, 2005

Just unwinding my “To Read” stack and came across a most excellent quote from Paul Graham’s latest essay:

If success probably means getting bought, should you make that a conscious goal? The old answer was no: you were supposed to pretend that you wanted to create a giant, public company, and act surprised when someone made you an offer. Really, you want to buy us? Well, I suppose we’d consider it, for the right price.
