I can imagine the raucous laughter behind me as I exit the bank, fist clenched in anger and face red with embarrassment, after explaining to the loan officer that I needed $20m to purchase an LNG tanker but also that I have never been a sea captain, don’t know anything about natural gasses, and have no supply chain for acquiring or selling the product that said tanker is meant to distribute.

Nah, I’m good. I’ll stay poor.
