Interesting, although I don't know enough about MTG to get the nuances of your analogy. (Certainly know enough to be entertained.) Two things, though. 1) I'm certainly not trying to cast a negative light on going public, and I don't think the author of the article is either. He's just presenting a correlation. It's generally a good idea. 2) Trading publicly isn't money for nothing, exactly (though I know what you mean) -- and more importantly those two options at the end of your post aren't the only options for an up-and-coming company. Slight oversimplification there.
