Comments on: A note of optimism from Techcrunch http://www.theequitykicker.com/2008/10/06/a-note-of-optimism-from-techcrunch/ Nic Brisbourne's view from London on venture capital and exploiting change in technology and media Sat, 11 Feb 2012 20:08:00 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.3.1 By: Jo http://www.theequitykicker.com/2008/10/06/a-note-of-optimism-from-techcrunch/#comment-3543 Jo Tue, 07 Oct 2008 11:14:13 +0000 http://www.theequitykicker.com/2008/10/06/a-note-of-optimism-from-techcrunch/#comment-3543 I am so optimistic about the current situation that I am going to take out movies about the Great Depression to try to scare myself. Why am I optimistic? We all watched the build up to the financial crash knowing full well the banking ethos of the last 10 - 20 years was cynical if not plain dodgy. But while it brought home profits, we were shouted down. Most of us are relieved if not downright happy to see the emperor's clothes called. Will life be so bad for the next ten years? Possibly - I am looking around for a clear projection of what is to come. It is also a time for clearing out the clutter and building businesses we are proud to belong to. Am I too too naive? I am so optimistic about the current situation that I am going to take out movies about the Great Depression to try to scare myself.
