<snip> A VC friend of mine once told me that he would never fund
someone who referred to themselves, or whom others referred to, as a
visionary. Why? Because it means they're actually too far ahead of the
market.
<snip>
Which is probably the exact reason we shouldn't over-rely on VC's.
Sometimes good dreams are too important to entrust into the hands of
those who don't have the depth of passion nor power of soul to help
give birth to ideas which can move civilizations. However
experienced and wealthy they may be, VCs, themselves, aren't
visionaries - else they'd be funding their own dreams. If they
can't see well enough, we shouldn't give them our dreams. If they
can't see, why deify them as if they're some special breed of human
knowing the needs of civilization any better than we do.. If VCs block
the way, let's come together and find other ways to give birth to our
dreams. Good dreams are too important to humanity to let die just
because a VC can't see...
