Yup, eventually. For me, it's one of the huge benefits of working at AngelList. VCs, Angels, and LPs walk in and out of the office every day, and I live and breath VC every day, while still working at a startup. I've learnt more about VC in 8 months at AngelList than most founders will in all their funding rounds combined.
I used to think of myself as starting a successful company or two, and retiring to VC or as an Angel… I've come to realize that that scenario is entirely unrealistic. Few founders have the experience needed to do this right off the bat. It'd probably be hugely beneficial to anyone to work in the industry for a bit before jumping in. Work for a VC, or work for a VC-related company (e.g. AngelList, FundersClub, Equidate, eShares…)
