and i'd argue that the majority of vcs we syndicate deals with leverage themselves as much as possible to add value. good companies generally have their choice as to which money to accept. value add is key...

before you make assumptions i'd check facts and/or inquire. our first fund was all of our own capital. we took 100% of the risk. didn't take ANY salary let alone a "cushy one" as for our added value, feel free to reach out to ANY of the founders we've invested in.

Was simply explaining how we as a firm view our relationships with founders of other startups... I'm grateful for everything I have.
