Indeed, it's inherent in really transformative ideas that they look like bad ideas - Google, Apple, Facebook and Amazon all did, sometimes several times over." | | Tomer Dean "Here we see some good returns, but is it actually realistic to think that the average fund can find this golden ticket? Probably not. The apparent truth is that most VC's aren't doing as well as our "realistic case". Only the good ones. The top 5%." | | Alex White "Transferring any of this weight must be done carefully.

It needs to be given with plenty of context and support." | Get your thoughts into people's inboxes!  We believe everybody should send a newsletter.
