Sunnie (29) and Jazmyne (30) are a queer couple trying to build their life together—buy a house, bring a child into their family, and create long-term financial security. But with just one primary income and a major surgery planned for next year, every decision feels high stakes. They earn a combined $180,000 and just bought their first home; but between rising costs, paycheck-to-paycheck living, and intense pressure on Sunnie as the breadwinner, their financial conversations often swing from optimistic to explosive. With no shared plan, no savings for a wedding, and looming fears about safety and stability, can they align on a vision for their future—and build a financial plan that supports it?

Everyone loves talking about finding product-market fit. But what if the real challenge in 2025 is keeping it?In this solo episode, I riff on why PMF has become more fleeting than ever. I unpack what Harry Stebbings, Jason Lemkin and Rory O'Driscoll observed —companies that once had a five-year runway now fall out of PMF in five weeks. We explore AI-fueled growth curves, the myth of “escape velocity,” and why today's go-to-market edge can vanish overnight.I also shares a brutal hill from a recent road race (and the startup metaphor it unlocked), plus a text exchange with a growth investor on the hunt for vertical SaaS alpha.If you're an operator, investor, or CFO trying to understand the new physics of scaling, this one's for you.Run the Numbers is sponsored by Gelt. You already know tax season isn't just a deadline—it's a lever.At Gelt, they work with CFOs who aren't just looking to stay compliant—they're looking to unlock strategic value from their tax position.

In diese Folge tauchen Alois und Oliver mit ihrem Gast Prof. Dr. Christian Rauda (Kanzlei ARTANA) tief in die juristischen Herausforderungen und Chancen ein, die Künstliche Intelligenz (KI) mit sich bringt. Christian, Fachanwalt für IT-Recht, Urheber- und Medienrecht sowie gewerblichen Rechtsschutz, teilt Einblicke in die spannenden Entwicklungen rund um KI, Datenschutz und geistiges Eigentum. KI und Rechtliche Grauzonen: Christian erklärt, wie Unternehmen durch die rasanten Fortschritte der KI vor rechtlichen und ethischen Herausforderungen stehen. Besonders spannend: der Umgang mit Trainingsdaten und die Frage, ob Urheber von Inhalten an den Erlösen von KI-Systemen beteiligt werden sollten. Chancen vs. Risiken: Trotz aller Risiken betont Christian, dass wir die Chancen von KI stärker in den Vordergrund stellen sollten. Die Debatte in Deutschland drehe sich oft zu stark um Gefahren, statt die Effizienzsteigerungen und Vorteile zu erkennen. Regulierung und Innovation: Im Vergleich zwischen den USA und Europa zeigt sich, dass der europäische Ansatz zwar strenger ist, aber langfristig auch als Blaupause für andere Länder dienen könnte. Die Datenschutz-Grundverordnung ist ein Beispiel für einen solchen Exportschlager. Schutzrechte und KI: Können durch KI generierte Inhalte urheberrechtlich geschützt werden? Christian erläutert, warum die Antwort „nein“ lautet und welche neuen Schutzsysteme dennoch diskutiert werden könnten. Zukunftsperspektiven: Oliver, Alois und Christian sprechen über die potenzielle Notwendigkeit neuer Rechtsinstitute, sollte KI immer mehr kreative und wertschöpfende Tätigkeiten übernehmen. Auch die Balance zwischen Regulierung und Innovationsförderung wird kritisch hinterfragt. Zum Abschluss plädieren die drei für mehr Aufklärung, um die Angst vor KI zu reduzieren und deren Potenziale gezielt zu nutzen. Eine inspirierende Episode für alle, die sich mit den rechtlichen und ethischen Fragen rund um KI beschäftigen!
