Psychology of a VC and how to take advantage of it
- graycat 12y agoMy thoughts on VCs in https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=8640126 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=8640126 and https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=8669232 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=8669232 can be used to respond to this OP. Mostly the posts are for entrepreneurs, but the second one tells VCs how to start getting decent ROI values.
- Animats 12y agoWhen you ask any VC how it is going you always get the same answer: amazing. Company XYZ is a home run! The writer is in the UK. Silicon Valley VCs don't say that. Startup entrepreneurs do, but not VCs. VCs expect about 1 in 10 to be a big success and pay for all the other losers.
