A bunch of smart young interns at Starta peppered me with questions for an hour. Their knowledge and depth of thinking really impressed me.

Here are some of my favorite moments:

7:52: Misconceptions about angel investing

9:12: Founder power struggles

11:40: Running out of money isn’t the #1 killer of startups

18:20: How I evaluate founders

42:27: The only reason VC’s exist

44:15: How to network and why

45:40: Opportunities in the down market

52:11: What happened to Clubhouse?

54:56: Twitter prediction

These young people are the future of our industry. The future is bright.
