I have read most of the recommended readings on Searchfund and a lot of the content on Searchfunder.  I have a few questions for those that have successfully raised a fund, found and acquired a company, and successfully transitioned to CEO.  Were your expectations met after the transition--  Was running a company as CEO what you thought it was going to be? Did you enjoy it and would you do it all over again?  Thank you.
