Y-Combinators Airbnb investment is just mind-blowing. $20K for 6%, which is ~$2,200,000,000 at current close. That is 110,000x MoM, a ~275% IRR compounded over ~11.5 years.

Had a chat with a respected VC; their associate asked my salary. The look on their face when I asked for theirs was priceless.

I hate myself for becoming a Linkedin shitposter, but if you follow the formula it can really move the needle. Comment on this tweet and I'll DM you the LinkedIn meta game (I've got nothing to sell)

@menosave They could make 100,000 shit deals that go to zero and they’d still be up. It’s hard to comprehend the asymmetric returns of VC.

Some of my favourite quotes from Jeff Bezos' statement to the U.S. House Committee. 1. To invent you have to experiment, and if you know in advance that it’s going to work, it’s not an experiment. Thread.

Takeaway: The cost per follower is not linear. There's value in considering both reach and engagement when budgeting for campaigns.

How I started a ‘profitable’ business in 7-days. I set myself a challenge to find a profitable business model in 24-hours. Admittedly it took a week to execute but here are the results!. -thread-.

1. They set very ambitious goals. They always seem to be reaching for the stars. But even before Elon Musk founded Tesla or started launching rockets into space, he was setting ambitious goals for himself and his companies.

Talking AI and eu/acc to Slovakian business leaders yesterday. Some of the warmest and most ambitious people I've met. These people love their country and will do whatever it takes to make it prosper. They know they can't rely of any lobbying or gvt support - they're on their own

I started a profitable and scalable business in 7-days that anyone could replicate. I recently set myself a challenge to find a profitable business model in 24-hours. Admittedly it took a week but here are the results. 👇🧵.

I stepped down from Outrank a while back to focus on AIApply, and @eugZolotarenko brought in the legend himself, @tibo_maker. What a team. They hit $10k MRR in just a few months, and the product is absolutely crushing it. It’s been incredible to watch it grow—bittersweet for.
✨ LAUNCH DAY ✨. I joined at $300 MRR, revamped the product, rebranded as Outrank and went public. In 2 months, it skyrocketed to $10k+ MRR 🤯. Why is it working? . Because it went from "just" generating blog posts . to being a fully Autonomous Blog Management machine.

@josusanmartin 6% for $20K (pre dilution) = ~2-2.5% today, post-dilution (60% dilution). Initial Share count (split-adjusted) = 250m shares. 6% = 15m shares. Currently worth $2.2B at $145/sh = (2-2.5% of FDSO).

@eamonncarey I've seen a TS from a fairly established London VC that makes founders spend ~50% of the seed investment on the fund's in-house 'services'.

3. They think outside the box. Successful people are known for their innovative thinking. They are always coming up with new ideas and ways to do things.

Response Rates: Didn't significantly differ between micro and mid-sized influencers, indicating that engagement is more about the pitch than the size of the audience. Response to email was around 80%.

5. They surround themselves with talented people. They know that they can’t do everything by themselves. They build up a team of incredibly talented people who help them bring their visions to life.

@WrongsToWrite Dying is like when you unplug your television. The power source is gone and there’s just blackness. But… that short period where the little light stays on even after you’ve unplugged it, that your last bit of consciousness, and it’s infinitely long.

6. They delegate tasks. Being surrounded by talented people makes delegating tasks much more efficient.

@andrewoetting We asked each-other the exact same question. Being paid from the exact same funds. What's the problem here?.

4. They take BIG risks. In order to achieve great things, you have to take risks. Successful people are definitely not afraid of taking risks. Sometimes you gotta lose a little to gain a lot in the long run.
