I’m not sure we backed any of the founders—but that wasn’t the point. We met quite a few smart folks. We had 70 investors sign up!

Yet many pieces of fundraising advice to founders paint the process with a broad brush. My co-founder and I got in a car and drove down to Tennessee thinking we’re gonna get this check.

For me, I have at least two years of active board and observer commitments to roll off of and far more time before all the founders I’ve backed hit (or miss, I suppose) their ultimate goal of returning lots of money to their investors.
