Let's face it, ne self-respecting CEO/FD/CTO is going to go near this.

Imagine you are walking into a shop with the intent to buy an expensive, but necessary, household appliance. You've budgeted for the expense and now just want to make sure you get the appliance that is right for you.

The shopkeeper says -'Well, I tell you what, there's lots of good stuff out on those shelves that you can trust to do the job, they are reliable and competitively priced but....if you take this one of my hands - (reaching under the counter) - which to be fair hasn't had great reviews, seems to be lacking in significant areas, will need huge aounts of your time to get up and running, and will likely need expensive maintenance and replacing pretty quickly, I'll give you a tenner...'!

Who takes the tenner?
