What would you work on if money were no object ? Do that now.
There are 5200 single-family offices and roughly half of them are in Europe. We think its way more when counting in wealthy individuals and families without a real "office". But how do they invest and what common mistakes do we see? Read our newest article below 👇 #familyoffice

My current state of mind. 👇 "I stopped paying too much attention to the news or sports or video games. Spending time fanatically watching sports, whether football, basketball or hockey, is especially stupid to me as that doesn’t help pay your bills." by @marvinliao
Luxembourg #2 Did you know that bankrupt founders are not allowed to start a new business in Luxembourg? #luxembourg #serialfounder #bankruptcy
When the growth equity guys email me cold asking for intros to my portfolio companies or just to ‘share insights’… I always respond back asking if they are investing directly into funds and emerging managers? Seems like a fair question to me 😎

VC is back, baby! How do I know? Because 90% of the reported (and unreported) rounds in the past few weeks make zero sense. VCs are back to deploying capital at a pace and at valuations that are completely divorced from reality - and that render fund performance impossible.
