"Make hockey stick growth a reality." Wow, great advice. I almost forgot to do that one.

No VC money will come in if you want to keep full control.

Keep full control (and don't take VC money) == 0.00001% success rate (Google, Facebook). Same as lottery.

Give up control (but take VC money) == 0.5% success rate. Still better chance of making something.

787 words and still so low on anything resembling content.

Does anyone have some comments regarding voting agreements in the context of VCs ?
