Sure Funding History

Sure has raised a total of $12.5M over the last 9 years Raising this capital resulted in dilution for Wayne Slavin despite non-dilutive funding options like Founderpath. With $12.5M money raised, Sure would have to sell for $125M, for investors to be happy. For any founders and early employees to make money, the company would need to sell for at least $12.5M assuming no crazy liquidation preferences.

Why are so many SaaS founders taking money from Founderpath.com instead of VC`s?
