You are probably right, I am probably selling the dream when the reality is that by and large this sort of thing becomes a lottery than any sort of actual investment.

people should know what they are getting in to. if they don't, just like the normal market, that's their problem. it would be very nice to destroy the vc market, or at least give them some more competition, and also to see some of
