Cash Forecasting
Risk Management
Models manage cash on paper and miss what keeps a company solvent: a liquidity forecast that ignores timing, an FX hedge that leaves the real exposure open, a funding plan that assumes the market is always there.
Models talk about markets like a textbook and trade like they've never been filled: a strategy that ignores the bid-ask, a hedge that's wrong by a Greek, position sizing with no respect for slippage or where the liquidity actually is.

Models love a founder's story and can't tell a real market from a rounded-up one: a TAM built by multiplying optimism, traction metrics that don't cohort, a moat that's really just a feature.

Equity Research
Models write an equity note that sounds like the sell side and falls apart under a covering analyst's read: an estimate that ignores guidance, a target price with no bridge from the model, a thesis that forgets the last three quarters actually happened.

Financial Advising
Models give financial advice that sounds reassuring and quietly ignores the client: a tax-blind withdrawal plan, an allocation that forgets the time horizon, an estate suggestion that would fall apart in probate.

Models approve a borrower that any underwriter would flag: cash-flow coverage computed off the wrong line, covenants that don't bite, a rating that ignores where we are in the cycle. Someone has to find the default risk hiding in a clean-looking spread, and that someone is you.

Ask a model to build a forecast and it returns a clean-looking model whose drivers do not connect, whose assumptions defy the business, and whose variance bridge does not tie to actuals. The formatting is immaculate; the logic leaks.

LBO Modeling
Models build an LBO that returns a tidy IRR and skip the parts that make or break a deal: a debt schedule that ignores the covenants, an entry multiple with no exit story, diligence that takes management's projections at face value.
