Imagine having 4 cofounders at a VC funded startup 🥹
Selling for $100M
Diluted to 10% ownership by VCs
Tax takes 50%
Go home with $1.25M cash after 6 years working 7 days a week 12 hours per day or $47/hour
Many people on Upwork make more than that!

ALT Founderland recently published a report about the current state of diversity in the startup ecosystem and it is worth reading and acting upon. This evening brought people together to celebrate the community & progress but also acknowledged there is way more work to do.

The worst part of being a founder is that no-one in your life will believe in your vision… until you're successful

Investing in diverse founders at the early stage has a domino effect. A $1-2M check can change the future of business.
Diverse founder > more diverse team > more diverse third parties & so on.
Being an early stage investor CAN move the needle.

Build a startup that makes something easier, something cheaper, something time saving, ideally all of the above. – at San Mateo, CA

There’s a fine line between persistence and obstinance.
Persistence is refusing to give up on a difficult goal. Obstinance is refusing to consider a different path.
Grit is not about banging your head against a brick wall. It's about looking for a way around the wall.

The true leader in a group is rarely the person who talks the most. It's usually the person who listens best.
Listening is more than hearing what’s said. It’s noticing and surfacing what isn’t said.
Inviting dissenting views and amplifying quiet voices are acts of leadership.
