The only requirement to be a VC is to end up in control of a huge bag of money and a checkbook.

I have no idea what it takes to be a VC, but having looked at the tweet author's linkedin profile, he has a Master's in CS from one of the top schools in India and a PhD in CS from a US university, also has a solid work experience. People usually do not magically reach positions of power in an industry.
