CNN Money: "The checkered past of Groupon's chairman"
http://j.mp/iqMRgR (CNN)
"But Groupon's IPO has brought an uncomfortable spotlight onto
Lefkofsky. While some attention focuses on his ambitions as an
investor in tech startups, others see a "spotty history" and draw
parallels between the past and the present. Lefkofsky's track record,
reflecting failures and successes, bears certain hallmarks: rapid
revenue growth accompanied by big losses, a penchant to sell stock
early on, and lawsuits filed by investors, lenders or customers who
feel they have been wronged."
