King Midas believed that turning everything he touched into gold would give him unlimited wealth. Instead, his greatest asset made food useless, love dangerous, and ordinary life impossible. In today’s episode, we break down why founders can face the same trap when they chase impressive valuations and top-line revenue while their cash remains locked inside inaccessible assets.
