Profit vs. Cash Flow 💸: The Silent Startup Killer! 💀 Heads up, founders! You can be 'profitable' on paper but still go bankrupt. Why? Profit: Revenue - Expenses (often accrual-based). Cash Flow: Actual cash IN ➡️ - Actual cash OUT ⬅️. Problem: When a business has late payments from customers or high upfront costs, which can drain its cash reserves quickly, even if it is making sales and showing a profit on its income statement. Lesson: Manage your BANK BALANCE like a hawk! 🦅
