Meanwhile, you don't notice that it is you and not them who are naked.THE NEXT STEP for INVESTORS: Revenue-based investing explains an alternative style of investing, one that doesn't need the exceedingly rare 10x return to make money for investors, introducing a set of structures for investing in revenues rather than exits.Structures that span debt, equity, and forms in-between. Structures that benefit both entrepreneurs and investors alike. Structures that don't follow the historic norms, but which work for entrepreneurs and investors alike.
