BBOB, I love the analogy. Having run my own co. for many years the most important thing I have learned is to let it develop...It takes constant effort to move forward 2 inches just to fall back one and a half, but one day the phone rings or the door opens and bam the order you only dream about falls in your lap. I feel that this is the same for TTM.
As for all those that think bad things about manipulators et all. Stop your worrying, a good project with strong fundamentals will make us all money never mind what other think or do!
I am here as long as molly is there!
