I don’t know any more about the Grizzlies than you do, but I think you’re just making assumptions without any real evidence. I’m not saying you’re wrong, but most of Pera’s net worth is tied up in company stock, so he certainly has a vested interest in seeing the company be successful. At the very least, you’d think that if he were genuinely bored with the company he’d shop it around and try to cash out rather than destroy his net worth along with his life’s work to this point.
I thought about this Neil, and I don’t think he’s bored. I think he has the hubris to think he can run UBNT with just half (or 40%) of his attention, while he runs the Grizzlies with the other half (or 60%). His first love is basketball. Here’s what I googled on him challenging Michael Jordan to a 1-on-1.
