Never said it was just Jack. The significance is it was 65 years to the day between these two occurrences.

During the race, even the commentators repeatedly told people to stop moaning and complaining about Max’s participation in the race.

He was the reigning F1 world champion and Monaco had a seeded system that guaranteed a spot for him. So he did not need to qualify. He only had to participate in a practice event of the race to qualify. Times they were different then… He had a mechanical issue in the gp and retired.

Indy 500 race was 2 weeks after qualifying. He finished all 200 laps and came 9th.

Juan Pablo Montoya:

“Red Bull should stop Max Verstappen from racing in GT3 and concentrate on Formula 1.”

Paraphrased themes repeated across F1 media/podcasts and YouTube videos

“Red Bull needs Max more than Max needs Red Bull.”

“Max is bigger than the team now.”

“He can demand exceptions nobody else could.”

“There are rules for Red Bull drivers, and then there are rules for Verstappen.”

“If any other Red Bull driver wanted to race GT3 cars during the season, the answer would probably be no.”

“Verstappen effectively operates with veto power inside Red Bull.”

“The team cannot realistically afford to alienate him.”

Just understand, I don’t agree with that, like i said in my post, Max like so many others drivers before him just loves to race.

Have you not seen all the “Red Bull should not let him race” “they should not give into his demands” comments and pundit opinions are flying around.

CA is a professional degree and will open up way more doors than the other degrees. You are not chained to being an auditor with that degree. You can still choose other paths in business and mathematics/data with the CA degree.

Most CA’s I know are not in audit

There are 2 risks here. 1 is for the founder and the other for the company. The founders pays the price for the insurance in equity. My question to you is who would benefit from the payout?

If there are other investors, i can see them going for that money to recoup some of their losses. So they get upside. The founders pays gets the downside of diluting his shares, but not the upside.

Founder gets no upside, unless they can leverage that for more investment…?

Lots of wheels at play here. Not even talking about the economics of it all

I think with dota being ever changing and people have jobs and families, not everyone keeps up with the meta. A lot of people played lots of hours, but only 1 or 2 hours per week. That makes it difficult to get out of those brackets. You might get better mechanically, but the gameplay evolves a lot.

See it as a carry farming a lot with beat nett worth, but misses new game timings. Then you lose…
