Being that you're addressing this question to me, thought I would answer.
YC's value extends FAR beyond the minimal dollar amount it gives each startup. If you really don't get that, you simply haven't been paying attention. SAD.
- ryanwaggoner 18y agoWhoa, dude...relax. I know you're on edge waiting for the results, but damn :) If you read my comment above, you'll see where I said: Yeah, I totally get that YC isn't about the cash. My point was that YC is worth far more than the cash it invests. But I still don't get why someone who had built a company worth millions and taken millions out of it would go back to the YC model. YC has always struck me as being more for single college-aged founders with no track record than for older, more established entrepreneurs with plenty of money to fund their future startups.
