I always get asked how to get into VC and so I think a lot about what it takes to do the job well. In venture capital, you say "no" a lot.

Each VC raises money – say $90 million.

*. What is the role of a VC for entrepreneurs? I suppose it can be different for every founder and for different VCs but I’d like to offer you some context on what I think it is and it isn’t.

I’ve heard a lot of people question whether there is too much money in venture capital chasing too few great deals.

Valuations are out of control” is the mantra of others.
