Nana's Denial

[Anthony's Lime Rickey]

 

[Andy Elliott]

If only businesses ran on "fun" you decrepit sack of shit

 

[Dr. Adam Cox]

Ain't it fun?

 

[Mike Glyer]

Yes, Anth. Having "fun" while attracting 1,000 viewers tops and burning through money then shutting down would be considered a failed business.

 

[Mick_Mickerson]

What is this senior citizen's obsession with letting people know how much "fun" he is having ? He's having fun broadcasting again, 10 years of fun!

Did you have "fun" is something you'd ask a 10 year old who got back from summer camp, not a 65 year old after laying off his staff and merging a failing company.

It plays into his creepy Peter Pan persona

 

[quasi101]

and we HATE THAT!

 

[TorpidSloth]

Did you consistently make a profit? No? Then it's a failed business.

successful businesses typically aren't absorbed by another, followed by a slew of layoffs

To be fair all of the Compound layoffs happened directly before it was absorbed

yeah, because gavin didn't want them before absorbing compound lol. also, didn't gavin sack people in a zoom call? why would he be the one pulling the trigger if it wasn't yet his call to make?

 

[CruisinColin]

"Watching another man fire all of my employees was fun!"

 

[Humanatee]

Next 10 years? Nana you'll be lucky if you make it another two.

 

[Sue Lightning]

I’m sure all those executives at Quibi, Blockbuster, and Bed Bath and Beyond could rest comfortably at night knowing they had fun.

 

[VibratingAnalEgg]

I know we've all had fun.

 

[wbgreen]

What a thin skinned faggot.

Nana had 0 plans for growth or success opening CM. To him, success was measured on how long he could keep his status quo of “having fun” going. It didn’t matter if year after year CM was bleeding money. If Nana could still drink and do a 2 hour show where he hoots and hollers and bullshits he was successful. He might as well have started a Gofundme post firing and just asked for money to do nothing. But obviously no one would give him money year after year if there weren’t a “product” attached.

The question then is why the fuck he decided to open a network instead of doing a show on his own. With a network you had bigger costs, people to take care of, and it looks like you want to grow it into an outlet for other creators. Nana didn't give a shit about any of that. “Whats fun? Having more people around me would be fun. FUN!”

BroJoe is a dolt but he was right about one thing. Nana has 0 business acumen. He just knows “how to be funny”, or he once knew how to do that, and to have fun. Even Joe in his decrepit age is chasing the money by taking cruise ship gigs and flying to carribean islands to perform shitty U2 shows. You can say thats pathetic, it is, but its still more business sense than Nana ever showed.

Nana has blown through everything: good will, relationships with friends, coworkers, money and of course trans penis.

Oh how the mighty have fallen.

After operating for ten years, the value of CP Media was no more than $60,000 -- based on what Gavin paid. If you ran a hardware store for that long and could only sell it for the equivalent of middle class yearly salary, you'd be more than a little disappointed. Of course, if you only spent a couple hours Monday through Thursday overseeing the business and spent the rest of the time drinking and playing video games, you'd be lucky to get even that much at the end.

 

[Slackjawed Cow]

"fun" = Being perpetually drunk

The real value was the fun he had along the way.
