3 what value is there in making a big deal about how you'll be underpaying Bullock by about 25% while you want him to be eager to be even better
The edge comes from no one knowing what you're doing. But to do that, you can't tell the world how smart you are, and brag about what your new secret sauce is.
The more you talk, the less advantage you have. So we talk.
I think it’s like having a consultant.
You get to the point where everyone else is paying consultants, and if you are the only one left not paying a consultant you feel like you’re falling behind. So this may be an emerging trend and like you said, may not lead to a key competitive advantage.
It sounds interesting to say the least. And Cuban is probably one of the early adopters. It might just be used as a reference or a check list.
Thank you Donnie.
