Know When to Hold ‘em, Know When to Fold ‘em

NY Times:

Sometimes, an entrepreneur has to know when to throw in the towel.

Nine days before Christmas, Jonathan Rosen of Scarsdale, N.Y., shut down Mobelex Designs, the home-office furniture retailer and wholesaler that he founded eight years earlier.
