I literally just want to build cool shit and help others succeed
The VC slowdown is real But 400+ brave VCs still invested over $1M in seed deals last month If you're raising soon, maybe start with them? To help, I made a list of 418 investors who led round over $1M If you want it 1. Comment "Nov Leads" 2. RT + Follow so I can DM it

Used to spend Sundays reviewing the calendar for the week to figure out which meetings to prep for. Now I just review my calendar to figure out which meetings I can cancel.
my advice for starting a startup during a downturn: ignore it.
Figma had $0 in revenue for 4 years. Completely breaks the “rush something to market and start charging immediately” mindset that most try to adapt. And it resulted in the largest acquisition of a private software company (ever)
VC's pass notes to founders 90% of the time: **🤥 What they say: "Market size, too early" **🤐 What they mean:
I became a millionaire at 35. Not because I was smart or the hardest worker. I became a millionaire because I broke society's rules. Here are 9 of society's rules you need to break:
Coming up with an idea is hard. Validating your idea is hard. Hiring great people is hard. Finding funding is hard. Making money is hard. Scaling is hard. Building a company is incredibly hard.
It’s such a gift when lawsuits like Twitter’s bring out all of these text messages. So much cringe
There’s so many ways to live this life. Enjoy the process
4/ Run don't walk towards these strategies ;) Remember VCs make decisions on little data + a ton of gut feeling. Influence that gut with some efeito manada... If you thought this was helpful, follow the herd (and me) and like / reshare that first post! x.com/jayyeh/status/…

Efeito manada That's what explains why a group of crossfitters running by a cafe in Brazil caused a stampede of people to follow thinking they needed to escape something Aka known as "herd mentality" in english, it's also what drives these 3 powerful fundraising strategies 👇
Historians estimate that the pyramids of Giza are roughly 5000 years old. This can't be verified for certain because you can't carbon date limestone. You can, however, carbon date an eggshell. This one, found in Aswan, is 7000 years old, and depicts the pyramids beside the Nile.
(1/5) The VC industry has the highest level of dry powder after a record breaking fundraising season and a summer slowdown in deal pace. There is ~$290 B in dry powder available for startups in VC funds - when will the funding floodgates open?
If I were a VC I would simply invest in a pre-seed startup that exits for $20B
