google "John Dimmer"

John dimmer was our most recent guest speaker. If he somehow googles his name and finds this blog post talking about him then I hope it’s a good blog post. He started off by talking about his background. There were a lot of interesting points said during this informational dialog. This seemed to interlink between what he was also trying to convey at the end of the class. I enjoyed the different views from his perspective on how to raise capital for a up and coming business, since we had other guest speakers that also showed their opinions on how and when to get capital for your company. I especially liked his view on investing, because the risk of investing and companies failing compared to a 1/10 chance a company would succeed; his expected return would be about 10 times what he invested to cover the losses. That’s if only 1 hits but if more than one hits he not only makes his money back but also makes a profit.
