By that logic YC and other VCs are continuously and systematically making bad investments every year.
You need to look at it as the total value this will provide Stripe. It's a community of people who will buy their service. It's good will too.
- BillyParadise 9y agoBut what's the upside? Will this website EVER net Stripe a (figurative) DIME after paying 2 salaries? I think not. Maybe it will entice a few dozen new account signups per month. Who knows. Community outreach is a good thing (tm) but I see now way any sane/experienced business person would pay a million dollars for this.
