I can tell you with 100% confidence this man did not break the 100 record while (a) wearing Payless road running shoes rather than spikes and (b) starting in the turn

@AmandaMGoetz Support this note, however my $$ to sitters are more about safety measures than anything else. I now have 12 & 14 yr old - self reliant imho.

Def a need for addtl task running. Couldn’t get there. Kudos @AmandaMGoetz

@tdkayode After 2 years of time commitment, raising 65% of target, missing 2 years of my children’s early lives, I decided to return capital. Frustrated w everyone

[Dave Kasouf @dkasouf1]

@tdkayode However, I hear your voice in this, and likely equal frustration. Many resort to doing what is easy vs what is impactful during times like these.

I’m an immigrant. Post 2008 was incredibly difficult to raise capital for my emerging fund.

@zerohedge Big gamma trade!

@HarryStebbings Amazing how many do not understand this simple morale boost in mgmt positions. +1

@lolitataub Lead at seed = board seat. Just don’t let it be majority

[Dave Kasouf @dkasouf1]

Early stage still very much on 🔥. Many who were recent ‘late stage’ labeled investors have just moved upstream. Growth will be a tricky environment for a few years as multiples reset.

Founders: don’t be fooled, plenty of seed investors need to deploy. Choose wisely
