    But then the gold rush ends and everyone has piles of shovels, your shovel investors get mad and demand a new CEO because they thought shovel demand would be that high forever.

    And you’ve pissed off your loyal hobby shovelers who have been with you for decades.

      I see how the market is trending, once the shovels sales are projected to drop, I put on my golden parachute and jump out with all those fat fat gold rush bonuses I paid myself, and then it’s some other clown’s problem. And if they do well, I still make bank from all the stock I awarded myself!

      I then take my shovelmaster reputation and find some other place to sell shovels at. Rinse, repeat, etc. It’s foolproof!
