How do you find the time to do all of these angel deals while working full-time (presumably) at Google? Can you give a rough estimate of the amount of time/effort that goes into investing?
- joshu 16y agoi let other people lead the deals. it's not like i'm negotiating terms or anything. i meet a few times, i try to get a sense of the team (i have a bunch of specific things i am looking for) and a sense for the idea. so, it's not a lot of time up front. and i don't spend a lot of time bothering them after i've invested - i'm available as requested. i still have plenty of time for xbox. i'm tempted to write more about how/why/etc to angel but i'm not very successful, so i feel like i shouldn't talk yet.
- sachinag 16y agoOn the contrary! We need more new angels. Your perspective would be most valuable. I always thought that new angels start as followers, then become leaders. Is this your path, or are you happy being a follower for the forseeable future? I have a million questions like this for someone lucky enough to have the money to invest and the credibility for great deal flow.
