Hey Glenn, would you mind sharing why you were unsuccessful? What were your biggest takeaways from the experience?

Cool, thanks for the reply. Doesn't look like you have any professional investment management experience. What was the most difficult part of raising the fund? How long did it take?

^^^ Wondering the same. Read the FAQ but still interested in the risk management philosophy.

Also interested how you guys get paid. Did you raise a fund? Are LPs mostly HNWs? Any institutions? Is the investment horizon of the fund similar to a typical VC fund?

And finally, I would imagine your SEA gets negotiated on a deal by deal basis if a portco raises more traditional VC? I'm curious what a series A looks like when there's a SEA in place that hasn't reached its return cap.

Thanks!
