Yeah, exactly. Profitable VC investment is often described as a numbers game, where you need to make maybe hundreds of investments to smooth out the inevitable numerous failures. 4x $250k angel investments is basically a long shot gamble. On the flip side, if you do spread your investments and invest in lots of companies, you as an individual aren't going to be able to have enough time to help or advise any one startup in a meaningful way.

How often do angels get screwed when VC's come in? Genuinly asking, not trying to make some point.

Sorry, I'm talking about VCs/angels as the same thing, and not trying to say anything about the investment time/stage/size/whatever.
