This video is over eight months old, but it documents the HL® Team‘s first “collective“, hands-on experience with the [then] #PIR prototype. I’m extremely proud of my team and I’m also exhilarated considering “all things HL®” in the new year (2017)!! -Desmond (DTO™)

Watson PMV Methodology : Discount Points, Errors, Provisional Valuations and Divisible Magic
Profit margin, gross margin, cash flow positive/negative, gross revenue, net revenue, net profit/loss…all of these are buzzwords that perk the ears of the dumbest, most gullible “entrepreneurs”. Real entrepreneurs never place the fate of their startups in angel investors/venture capitalists–entrepreneurs are the “say-so” when it comes to determining the “value” (snicker) of their ventures, particularly,Continue reading “Watson PMV Methodology : Discount Points, Errors, Provisional Valuations and Divisible Magic”
You Don’t Know What Definitions Are, Andreessen Horowitz and Beware The Advantageous Individual Investor
The title is a statement that stands and you would need to be retarded (in the literal sense, I mean that you were actually born with emotional/cognitive impairments) to read “You Don’t Know What Definitions Are…“ and think that it’s some sort of endorsement. I’m aware of your magnificent manner of meme-inventing and creating aContinue reading “You Don’t Know What Definitions Are, Andreessen Horowitz and Beware The Advantageous Individual Investor”
C O M P E T I T I O N | D I V E R S I T Y & C H A R A C T E R I S T I C S
At the young, tender age of 6, my grandfather told me something that has stuck with me ever since: “Never be respectful to those who aren’t respectful to you.” As an entrepreneur, I constantly find myself fighting those heedful words because I’m constantly being told that I can’t come-off like an “angry Black man” sinceContinue reading “C O M P E T I T I O N | D I V E R S I T Y & C H A R A C T E R I S T I C S”
Deconstructing Thielism, ‘Money’ and Only A Hetero-Normative Black Man Can Put Together A Startup Like HL®
Hexagon Lavish®, an exemplary startup of pallor, has grown from uno to….quite a few more scientists, engineers, programmers and presumable mathematicians–essentially, a group of individuals who gravitated towards the magnetic presence that comprises HL®–and we’re still growing. We’re growing with an insurmountable fixture of courage accompanied with a soon coming crowdfunding campaign that will beContinue reading “Deconstructing Thielism, ‘Money’ and Only A Hetero-Normative Black Man Can Put Together A Startup Like HL®”
S T R O N G / W E A K
Disclaimer: I should point out that one of the reasons why I poke fun at the Bourgeoisie is because I think it’s a really bad thing to have rigid social hierarchies. With that said, this blog post contains “colorful language”. It’s been a month since I’ve arrived back from my short-lived, all-purposed trip to NewContinue reading “S T R O N G / W E A K”
Straight Off That Two-Month Long, Dry Blog-Spell….
Disclaimer: I’m known to say things that come off brazenly harsh. Yeah. As some of you should know (that’s to say, you’re following the YouTube series, HL™ Startup Chronicles), I was recently in the Big Apple last month in May, attending a private equity conference that was hosted at the Yale Club right off ofContinue reading “Straight Off That Two-Month Long, Dry Blog-Spell….”
I’d Rather For HL® To Be Revolutionary, Not Disruptive
This is why you, investors, should invest pour your money into HL®. I don’t know how many times I’ve stated this but, HL® is a scientific R&D startup that specializes in the development of IISS (Informational Interpretation Scientific Software), and one of the resultant products from that platform is PIR™; scientific software that will be designedContinue reading “I’d Rather For HL® To Be Revolutionary, Not Disruptive”
My Response To A Self-Proclaimed “Investor”
To The Ghost In The Machine That Calls Himself / Herself An “Investor”… I’m going to take my time with this response to your question because, if there’s one thing that I’m extremely good at, it’s putting an investor in their place. 1). I don’t know what’s more important: a Black man who’s starting hisContinue reading “My Response To A Self-Proclaimed “Investor””

If I had my say in the matter [and for the record, I do]…I’d place the valuation for Hexagon Lavish® at approximately $________________ (USD). I had to throw a number out there. Notice that I did not specify pre-money valuation or post-money valuation nor whether or not I included the valuation for the foundation ofContinue reading “S T E A L I O N A I R E”
