    And pessimists don’t?

      I think the implication is that pessimists don’t try.
      • heavenlyblue 6y ago
        Your assumption is only true if trying never has a negative downside.

            My take on the GP meaning: Failure diminishes trust from investors. If you got 1 milliion from investors, and you blew it/wasted it/burned it. It will be harder to get the million for the 2nd idea.
