What is the #1 job of the CEO?

The #1 job of the CEO is to make sure you don't run out of money.  Cash is oxygen to a startup. The CEO does this by managing revenue, expenses, and external financing (via equity, debt,  grants/funded development deals or other sources of financing) to maintain consistent growth of the business.
