What VCs do: Swamp ideas with money and kill off the better ideas, while continuing to lecture the rest of us about how our PPTs should be, what dress we need to wear, and how to be respectful of their time.
Frankly, a lot of us aren't even funded by VCs anymore. Boot strapping and staying frugal has helped. I don't really have it in me to go grovelling to VCs anymore. DONE.
So whats in it for the individual startup chaps? Or will VCs continue to dominate everything?
