I'm guessing the gear system means it's doable, but you'd need to be pretty fit. There again, you need to be fairly fit to walk up Nevis, so i suppose that works out ok.

[@oicvinyl]

I'm dead serious - has *anyone* ever made a 5% valuation at $100k and honestly gotten it? Some people walk in with the most ridiculous valuations; and this dude frankly wasted everyone's time by waiting to say 'oh it's impossible to negotiate' - this is a huge example of awesome product, awful disclosure of info. Even if dude could've moved to *ten* percent, I think he could've had a deal. $100k at 5%, non-negotiable, is a non-starter.

[@ryanmorgan9589]

You understand people go in there not wanting a deal?

[@Ex0rz]

@@ryanmorgan9589 You are right. This is like the best possible marketing you can have FOR FREE! Some already have an amazing product and a running business and all they need is advertisement.

[@Asif-kh-n9r]

"Brand yourself" got 100k for 2% and that story book company got 100k for 5% from piers

[@billos3218]

Apparently a lot of the people that go on the show are invited by the BBC under the guise of advertising their product. They dont necessarily apply to go on looking for an investment. That what youtube comments told me over the last 4 day DD binge anyway.

[@DrunkenGyarados]

For Tim to make a deal he would have to have given his own portions of the company, since the other stakeholders weren’t willing to further dilute their shares. A 100k cash injection would honestly not be worth it for him to lose so much of his own shares in an already successful business (you have to consider that this is not a fledgling start up like most proposals on this show). So in reality he’d probably be better off with a bank loan for the $100k than taking such a huge dilution of his own personal shares
