I know, I know...startup = explosive growth. But... It's hard for me to consider something a "startup" when you have more than 1M in the bank and spending 60K monthly. That's a company!

Actually, startup = a company, a partnership or temporary organization designed to search for a repeatable and scalable business model[1]

You're right, I was using PG's definition http://www.paulgraham.com/growth.html


(author of the post here) I agree, we don't see ourselves as searching for a business model anymore. We are scaling something that works now.
