Don't mind him, his idea of profitability can be a negative ROI.
Most people wouldn't consider 1 or 2...or yes even 3 dollars a day to be profitable. They could probably go to a store pick up any pack of menthols and sell them on a street corner for 25cents a piece. Only then would they gather the quarters to get some clues and some common sense.
If at 100mil it is showing only 3 dollars a day in profitability...well...then it is no longer profitable. Period.
Edit: I mean sure, you could give your kids some lunch money at that point, but then you wouldn't have any profit to speak of...
If its $3 a day, that's only for 10 days, then diff changes again and now its $2 a day, then another 10 days and its $1 a day.
Just remember you paid $274 for it.
In Josh's head if you get to $274.01 in 3 years. You are profitable and his conscience is clear.
