The whole concept of not investing until after graduation has some merit...but I see 3 problems with this:
a) this guy has no pedigree...all he has going for him is that VC rating site
b) He has no practical experience, when he had a VC rating website, what did he learn about pitching to investors?
c) As a fresh startup...do you really want to start out with ties to someone who has negative relations with pretty much all VCs?
It just seems like he is an opportunist who is jumping on a bandwagon,
- djahng 18y agoI agree with your point c...do you want to be associating yourself with someone who's legacy is a website that allows people to anonymously trash-talk their VCs?

- gruseom 18y agoUpmodded for the most ass-kicking refutation I've seen here in a long time. Edit: Maybe that's harsh, but one ought to be careful before saying that someone has "no pedigree".
