How to fund a takeover when you're short on cash in five easy steps:

1. Send an exciting new opportunity for investment to all the staff in your company, citing existing staff members who are successful and happy shareholders

2. Give your staff a whole 24 hours to consider the proposal before they must join or miss out.

3. Mention that the minimum investment required is $10,000 and you need to cough up the money within a week.

4. Regret to inform them that they can only allow 15 more investors before the pool closes, and this is the last opportunity to invest in the company in a very long while.

5. Neglect to mention that if you leave, your share options go down the toilet and you must depend on someone else buying your shares to recoup your money.

(any resemblence to a real life offer is purely coincidental.)

In other news, Mondays still suck.
