41,000,006 reasons why I think we're in a bubble
The $41m injection might well kill the company. I've never seen startups with too much capital early on to become the next Google/Facebook/Twitter - you lose your chance to become "relentlessly resourceful"!

Sorry, but your company dies when you have no more cash. The $41 million will help them survive for a long time.

But the point of the $41m from an investor's perspective is to get them to scale, not survive.

there is a big difference between having the capital available and actually spending it.

Doesn't it make you a bit relaxed? I've seen the effect of "too much money" first hand, regardless of spending
