@Industrializer Beardy was an allocator. I’m not sticking up for him in the slightest, but I find it odd that the actual operators aren’t catching any of the heat.
@chasesfish@TheJSantiago We do, but we still do raise primarily from friends and family and our word of mouth networker. Across all platforms we are right at $100mm raised and have been at it for a little under ten years.
I find it crazy the amount of money we raise by people that never second guess our assumptions or ask for our models. There has been plenty of excess capital chasing these deals, but times are changing. Any reasonable operator or allocator should want to provide models and answer the tough questions.
@robbiehendricks We looked at a few of their deals, but ultimately passed. I think they are reasonable people and I knew Brandon was raising for them, but they need to be stepping up here.
