Report what? If you mean the expense reimbursements, they will explain upon arrival. (They welcome you and help you get a RUT number, bank account and mobile phone contract.) Don't worry about those practicalities now - they are taken care

No, but you can get inspiration indirectly. SUC publishes the names of selected startups: http://www.startupchile.org/110-startups-selected-to-partici... Upon selection SUC also asks (if you confirm to come) to give a summary description

Here's how it was last round: You need two for the entire team - can be zero, one or two per founder. The recommendation can come from anywhere. I used a happy client for this.

Did you upload all attachments using the EXACT names they require? Note to all: The YouNoodle "integration" is a bit buggy, I stored my draft answers in google docs for peace of mind.

You are correct.

Agreed. Those who think that Monsanto represents "apolitical business" are not my definition of smart. Than again, apparantly I'm one of the dumb ones.

http://lmgtfy.com/?q=mises+monsanto I don't need a lecture on what libertarianism is. Also, if you think Monsanto represents pure capitalism, you are not much of a libertarian.

It's hard to underestimate how great this deal is. You get a work visa, office space, support network and enough money for rent reimbursement, basic salary (more than ramen btw) AND with what's left you can hire the skills you lack. All thi

Monsanto is one of those rare companies that is so fucked up that it is hated by both socialists and libertarians.

I'm arriving end of this month for the Nov 3 batch, what I know so far of local options is that webpay.cl is the local PayPal which a lot of companies use. Thanks for the tip.

I looked into setting up a Delaware parent holding for my Startup Chile startup as I wanted to use Stripe. What stopped me was the need for an American social security number. To be clear: This is what the Stripe signup required, I can only

This type of white self-hate is really annoying. Why should one feel guilty for living in a society that is capable of achieving high per capita incomes?

I see two reasons why you should be in the Valley: 1. You sell to startups 2. Your business model is cash flow negative, or you don't have a business model at all If neither is the case, a "second tier" hub like Austin or Santiago (Startup

$3M on 12.7M investment is higher percentage wise than what the Airbnb guys are asking. Plus, it's earlier stage.

This is a great idea. I once read a lesswrong.com article on how commute times are one of the most underrated aspects in picking a place to live. Of course, this also means you will have some teaching to do.

The solution is obvious: CrunchFund buys back a majority stake in TC from AOL for $20 million. AOL now owns TC indirectly, as Mike is the middle man.

Which is perfectly fine by me, a right wing libertarian who fits right into the target demographic of Top Gear. As long as electric cars are not practical enough to sell themselves, I will enjoy Clarkson's rants about them and everything el

So it's OK if you raise money in an IPO from a lot of small investors, but it becomes illegal if you raise money from a few experienced investors?

The US bailouts were approximately $16K per capita, so whatever the banks receiving that money do with it replaces the massive amount of interest needed for a bubble.

I really hope the Groupon IPO fails, because if it pops like the Linkedin one the bubble becomes undeniable IMO. With all the free freshly printed money floating around on Wall Street, I am not holding my breath though.

I second this recommendation. After reading this book, I suggest "What has government done to our money?" by Murray Rothbard to understand the monetary problems in more depth. Edit: Here are free pdf's for these 2 books: 1) http://www.fee.

The amount of money involved is quite substantial. There are rumors that one single person had 25000 bitcoins stored at mybtc. That's a very painful amount of money to be panicking about... Another bad sign is that the company behind mybitc

They believe law and economics i.e. human action is a field of logic. They don't say you can not model the economy, they do say whatever correlations occur in your models can not invalidate logical necessities.

Indeed. The one way for them to lock in market leadership forever is to drop the fees and make their money on payment processing, insurance offers, user screening and safety deposits that renters may or may not decide to opt in for. This wo
