Episode notes

I'm trying to think about fear It's very hard for me to put my finger on fear I fear Uh, some of my investments that I'm very invested in and I want to see succeed Failing it would be heartbreaking for me To have put years of work into them and to watch the founder fail And think maybe I didn't do enough to support that founder. That to me is Beyond my own personal failure Which can't happen now because like you I'm post money and I've already hit you know three or four home runs So this is almost like you're anticipating the sadness that you're going to feel As you have felt when things failed because I felt it before too.
