Putting up the bat signal.. 🦇

who wants to be a startup investor someday?

I want to give someone who's hungry a shot to learn by doing.

I just raised a rolling fund - and now have a few million bucks to invest into ~15-25 startups in the next year.

You can learn the investing process from A to Z.

finding deals --> vetting --> negotiating --> closing --> supporting

+ creating content to build the fund brand

let's start with the basics:

you get:
- 4 years of experience, in 1 year
- a piece of my carry (I take 0% management fees, so there's no salary)
- walk away with a portfolio of 25+ companies in your portfolio

you give:
- your nights/weekends hustling to invest in startups

this is for someone who's idea of a fun friday is surfing the internet, playing with new tools/apps, & half your camera roll is screenshots.

To most people that feels like work...but for some people, that feels like play.

I don't care if you have any experience with investing. But you should have a lot of experience with the internet. The internet is like a third arm.

I want someone who doesn't want to spend the next 10 years grinding up the VC career ladder

In any project - you can either be a

a) The Driver
b) Riding Shotgun
c) Backseat passenger
d)Or in the Trunk (left in the dark, just a long for the ride)

With me you'll spend 50% of your time as a driver (hunting for interesting companies, supporting the portfolio, drafting investor updates, creating content to improve dealflow)

and 50% riding shotgun while I drive

If you want to work with me, I have 3 rules:

1) Bring the juice (energy) =="If you're juiceless you're useless"

2) Do what you say == if you tell me you're going to do something, I expect you to do it

3)Say What You Do == work in public

I hope this gives a shot to an outsider, or someone who isn't already sitting at the cool-kids-table in tech.

If this thread describes you, I'll see you in my DMs
