- ceilingcorner 6y agoYour comment is misleading. In no way is he taking credit for the founders’ work. He clearly says he was looking to fund someone in that space.
- georgewsinger 6y agoHow is that tweet "taking credit for founder's work"? Also have you seen this guy's resume? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Keith_Rabois#Business_career https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Keith_Rabois#Business_career Yeah -- he's in no need to take credit for other people's work. I love taking advice from people like Keith Rabois because you know (unlike 99% of other VCs) he actually has experience building mega-unicorns himself.
- mdonahoe 6y agoI read it differently. It reminds me of some advice on pitching: “Don’t waste you’re time trying to convince hesitant investors you have a good idea. Find the investors who already know it’s a good idea, and then convince them you’re the team whose going to do it.”
