If I came to you and said, “Michael, I’m really depressed. My life is terrible.” You wouldn’t tell me, “Oh, Adam, it’s all in your head. Get over it.”

This is about way more than investor psychology, feeling shitty bc stocks are tanking. There are real problems in biotech finance that need fixing.

Michael - Thanks, and I’m open to hearing possible fixes.
