I think the sale numbers line up very well with what I would expect given the numbers actually posted (if anything I'm surprised the sale price is as high as it is). Is your thesis that people should lower their expectations about how much recurring revenue businesses are worth? If so, I agree.

You'd be better off if you were. Instead you are employing classic and cowardly character assassination techniques. There is literally nothing Patrick or his defenders can do to refute your claim (mostly because you refuse to make one). Even if they did, you could fall back to the safety of saying "I wasn't saying Patrick specifically is a liar, I was posting about people generally."
