I’ve mostly avoided Kogan after years ago hearing the founder speak at a conference about how the business got started. He talked like it was admirable about how he used credit cards (some in the name of friends) to get early business capital in a way that if not technically fraudulent was certainly spectacularly unwise and likely to create disaster for others who tried it.
