> Dunlevie admitted to a partner that he wasn’t certain how WeWork would ever become profitable, but he was taken with Neumann. Dunlevie said to the partner, “Let’s give him some money, and he’ll figure it out.”

I am always amazed at how far you can go by just putting all your skill points into Charisma and nothing else. These are supposedly smart investors and all it takes is a smooth talker and boom! $17M just like that. More money than I’ll ever see in my entire life. This guy has generational wealth now, and normal working schmucks like me will need to work till we are 80.
