TRANSCRIPT
Just because raising capital sounds sexy and cool, please don’t misinterpret or underestimate the ramifications it has. Nor should you forget the blood, sweat and tears required to build a huge company and then sell it for a big return. By expecting to raise money easily, you’re inadvertently expecting building a company to be easy. Give raising money the respect it deserves, as you do your business.
