That perspective varies by the individual. I know people who have taken money and consider themselves to owe their investors a return. The depression experienced from a lack of ability to deliver that return can be extreme.
There are also lots of funding deals that are loans as well.
- tptacek 14y agoThere are not lots of funding deals with venture capitalists that are structured as loans in the sense that you & I think of them. Probably none. You do not owe your investors a return. Anybody who thinks they do doesn't understand how startup investments works, or has taken investment on false pretenses. No early startup founder is in a position to promise a return to anyone.
