The man in the arena

There’s a lot of good jokes right now on VC and tech twitter. I’m not going into details as it’s not my M.O. to bash others in this industry so you can scour Twitter on your own. But this said investor was quite loud during the bull market years and unfortunately things are coming back to haunt him. If you’re going to talk shit, you best be ready for it to come back at you.

In the sports world, Caitlin Clark of Iowa exemplified experience beyond her years as she came up short against LSU in the national championship game and was taunted by LSU’s Angel Reese. There’s been a ton of talk about class in basketball, but hey shit talking is part of the game. You just need to be ready for it to come back at you. It’s been awesome to watch Caitlin handle the experience with class and dignity.

A lot of executives and investors could learn from this 20 year old from Iowa. I definitely did.
