So most of my readers by now will know I am a 100% Xero convert – though I am still waiting for the much anticipated Foreign Currency Release later this month to complete my transition.
Anyway I was recently catching up on Rowan Simpson’s blog and discovered a link to a wonderful analysis of investing in Xero and a model (I suggest you read the article and download the model from Sam’s site) to determine customer numbers and revenue requirements to achieve an acceptable rate of return on your investment given the risks etc.
While I found the analysis extremely comprehensive I was more intrigued by the author – the name rang a bell.
Reading various other posts on www.samstewartnz.com made me more sure this was an old acquaintance from my university days.
So I sent an email with a few snippets of history that would have been a  little strange were it not the same Sam Stewart but as it turned out it was.
Sam has spent time in Wellington after studying at the University of Auckland and is now currently in Brisbane.
Just goes to show you don’t need to rely on Facebook to catch up with old friends!
