No, these are hard and important issues. I trust our team to think them through and would never want to outsource or shirk that responsibility. Having what you do matter is the highest job satisfaction. We may not always get it right, but I’d never not want to be in the arena.



Well, if you actually feel that way... Let me suggest reading about J.P. Morgan's heroic actions during the Panic of 1907 ( https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Panic_of_1907 ). Vs.
