Fucking Sue Me (2011)
<i>“But what if something happens?? What if the site crashes? What if I’m late? What if..??”</i><p><i>“Do you think any of that stuff is going to happen?” he asked.</i><p><i>“Probably not. But what if it does?”</i><p><i>“Then you know what you do?” he said. “Tell them, ‘fucking sue me.’”</i><p>This is dangerous advice. It will work well right up until you come across someone who will &quot;fucking sue you&quot;. A contract, once signed, is a legally binding promise. You have promised to deliver what&#x27;s on the contract, and you can be held accountable in a court of law if you fail to do so. The financial penalties for violating a signed contract can easily drive one into bankruptcy, and the reputational penalties can make it very hard to recover.
