Sorry, if you don't move to SF, attend burning man regularly (and use the Experience to completely define yourself from then on) and disavow any right-leaning views, you have no right to participate in the startup world. Well, that's how it feels as someone living in the midwest who has tried to be a part of startups. I lived in California for over a decade and the entire startup thing was almost too easy to participate in. Money thrown all over the place, easy to find new startups or participate in your own. But god help you if you don't feel like living in California.
