Awesome post and view what it's like to be a new angel investor and paying back the startup community. We need those who've been successful to support other entrepreneurs even though most investments fail. Love the honesty and matter of fairness. Hope I get there someday.
Would love to know if there are any industries/verticals you have found yourself steering clear of and, if so, why?
The recruiting space! Mostly because I spent 3 years banging my head against a wall in that space.
Generally, I get nervous in the consumer space, but I've made several consumer investments.
There are a couple spaces I'd like to do something in -- education, robots, anything kid-related (b/c I have two young boys).

Good job, Ben!
good initial press, but it didn't work out ( there's an entire blog post I could write about why)
