Ownership is everything. It's better to own 100% of a small company than 40% of a large company.
The greatest gift you can offer others is a positive and confident mindset. Do your loved ones a big favour and make a conscious effort to cultivate a genuine, positive, and confident personality.

@rexsalisbury @toptal Yep super rare and the founder also wasn’t very friendly apparently
Three things about this story: 1) Original Safe was not released until 2013, 1 year after Grosz invested 2) Post-Money Safes require dividends paid on common stock 3) Zombie startups can continue accepting Safe money (100%+) and never convert. No recourse unless actual fraud.
SAFEs have a flaw. if company never raises equity, note never converts, you never get the equity! this happened w/ @toptal. and investor "got" 10% for $1M via a note that never converted. Toptal is now worth ~$1B. investor have ~$100M reasons to be upset and is suing. This…
I built and sold Frame.io for $1.3 billion to Adobe, and along the way, I received plenty of advice that turned out to be entirely off the mark. Here's a look at some of the most glaring misdirections: 1. "As CEO, focus on executive business tasks." This couldn't…
The most important section of our recent job posting by far
Other notes: • SAFEs beat Notes at at the pre-seed is true across industries and geos including the South & Midwest. • Here's another chart showing rising interest rates on convertible notes across stages—capital is on 🔥 All credit due to @PeterJ_Walker
SAFEs vs. Notes: 🌱 Pre-Seed: SAFEs capture 90%+ of pre-seed rounds (<$1M) 🅰️ Series A: But Notes beat SAFEs 2:1 at Series A 📈 Trends: Rising interest rates on notes (8-10%) and convertible notes being favored in earlier VC rounds, is this more permanent or merely transitory?
@andrewroylegal @PitchBook @jaydimonte Your welcome!
If I were raising money for a startup today, I would opt for the "one-and-done" round. It provides the most optionality to take different paths without opting into the VC game. • Raise $500K - $2M from angel investors and F&F. • Keep the team size to 8 or less. •…
@ColinGardiner @PitchBook @jaydimonte A lot of angels presumably became solo GPs in micro funds and positioning themselves as pre-seed investors imo
@ColinGardiner @PitchBook @jaydimonte Probably 15+ years from pre-seed. Reddit took 19 years to go public.
@ColinGardiner @PitchBook @jaydimonte Lack of exits, been sitting on many investments for 10+ years.
Where did all the angel investors go? Angel investor participation has apparently been dropping in venture deals for years. Data from @PitchBook /NVCA showing deal and dollar amounts declining. What do we think is driving it? h/t @jaydimonte for sharing
The 4 types of VCs (and what founders should know about each): 🧑💻 Emerging managers. EMs are newer VCs (fund I/II/III) with smaller AUM (sub-$50M) and a tiny team - sometimes just a solo GP. Emerging managers were usually operators not long ago, so interacting with them feels…

1st year associates are wonderful people and I fully support their career development. But charging $750 an hour for them to ascend the learning curve is highway robbery and everyone involved knows it.
Just had a final call with a potential investor, ready to close. 4 month cycle, 6 calls, and one in-person meeting in NYC. Par for the course in this market.
I went through YC W22 as a solo founder. I pivoted mid-batch. I couldn't find a compelling pivot and eventually missed Demo Day. I failed to make the best out of my YC batch experience. Here's what I'd do differently if I were to do it again:
