Comment on Palm Beach Gardens teen launches Jurassic app

Comments

I'm confused - the article doesn't mention an angel investment at all.

The person that submitted this (mangoleaf) is the father of the boy in the story so I assume he knows more than the article mentions.

The angel offer came from a retired CEO of a public company that saw the article. I posted that as the first comment, but there is no way to make that comment sticky to the top. I see it below.

Right sorry - missed that.

Did you accept the offer and what was the amount of the offer?

I had a talk with my son. He said he wasn't ready. I agreed. The angel said that whenever he feels he is ready, offer stands. Enough to put a structure around him and allow him to focus on products. One manager, one sales/bizdev...enough to cover their salaries for a year or two.

What he REALLY wants to do is work for Notch, or some company that is doing a fun and interesting games or educational stuff. He likes team projects. Anyone need a 13yo beta tester that is into the digital game/educational world?

what references/skills does he have?
