I  admire you for being compassionate, I hope that I would be too, but you still have to do what is right for your business.

(I admire her advice but on this I feel she is off the mark.) 

Admiral thought process I suppose.

I am amazed that you had the guts to take that on and I admire your determination to see it through until a successful sale.

Some of who contributed I have came to know already by listening to podcasts and reading articles several of whom I admire were featured in. 

It is admirable that you want to help people....however I would not mix your investing with your desire for social justice.  

heh, i'm always worried about this situations as i'm a pet admirer myself and do find them so invaluable to wellness especially for the elderly, the disabled, and a few other niches like seizure predictions, etc. ditto for horticulture/gardening but fortunately houseplants dont normally cause any damages or liabilities like a tenants' lethal dog bites suddenly becoming the liability of the landlord as certain court cases in america have actually found (the landlord to be the statutory owner responsible for the dog's damages). i couldn't decide whether to put a 2M or 250M price tag on a toddler's loss of life, my bad in the story line!

I admire your ambition!

I admire that -- but wouldn't recommend it.

It's admirable that you want to do your part, @Sandra Holt, but I don't think this is the best way.
