I invest because I love helping entrepreneurs and watching them learn and succeed. In my opinion your motives are driven by self serving factors around ego satisfaction and "making a buck". My motives and values are very different.

You have learn to hire a management team, you have to learn how to manage You have to want success so badly that you learn how to manage.

As an investor I cannot tell that. We cannot predict the success or failure.

Now the tech community is popping up and saying, 'We do need to be involved in our surroundings.'

The tech community is a closely knit group, which is why it's so powerful. All of these companies have an affinity for each other, even if they compete with each other.

Have a huge work ethic, be ambitious, aggressive, tough.

Technology does more than delight, entertain and make our lives more convenient, it's also an agent for social good. That is why it's important for tech startups to stay informed about, and make a mark on, policies that impact them.
