I’m from beautiful Manhattan Beach, CA, where my Asian parents forced me to play the violin every day.

I’m the founder of Five9 and DoctorBase, co-founder of 6connect, and an advisor to Halloo.
I try to stay a busy boy.

Every day in startups seems like a challenging puzzle, but I couldn’t imagine doing anything else. I find humor helps the process, so please don’t be offended if I offend you.

Healthcare Insurance Reform means – Blue Shield CA Raises Rates 40%

I’m a fan of Obama, but his new plan (so far) doesn’t seem to be working. To quote our President, “…this new bill will make healthcare more affordable… for small businesses, for families…”

Uh, our small business just got a letter from Blue Shield the other week saying it was “significantly raising rates…” We got a bill that is about 40% more for each employee. And it seems that we’re not the only ones Blue Shield of CA is raising prices on.

Mr. President – come on! When all healthcare insurance companies have to do to skirt your bill is to raise our rates by 40% – duuuude, your plain ain’t worky!

* Can we have the old broken way back please? At least it was cheaper then…
