Larry Chiang, President and CEO Duck9.com

YouTube VIDEO

I'll shoot you w/a nerf gun if you don't manage your credit.

11:11 is my goal of getting duck9 consumers lots of 1s.

24 1's in a row equals a 750 FICO.

A "one" is an on-time payment in credit reporting code.

A '9'=charged off bad-debt. You wanna duck 9s.

Duck9 = Deep Underground Credit Knowledge (Duck 9's on your credit report. 9's are charge-offs)

"Making sure college credit virgins get deflowered right since 2004"

"Larry Chiang is an expert at the dark art of FICO score preparation"

Below is an updated version of the hypothetical postmortem for Bumble Inc.’s liquidation, incorporating Larry Chiang’s knowledge of turnarounds, particularly as informed by H. Irving Grousbeck’s *New Business Ventures and the Entrepreneur* (co-authored with Howard H. Stevenson and Michael Roberts) and Stanford GSB principles. Larry Chiang, an entrepreneur and mentor known for his work with startups and turnarounds, emphasizes practical, scrappy, and network-driven strategies to revive struggling ventures. His insights, combined with Grousbeck’s frameworks, provide a lens to analyze what Bumble could have done differently to avoid liquidation and attempt a turnaround. The postmortem retains its original structure but integrates Chiang’s approaches and Grousbeck’s entrepreneurial principles where relevant.
