I'm following you from the beginning days of your YT channel and it helped me growing my startup that was funded by DesignFarmBerlin in Germany. Your videos are massively improved. I love the new style. And I always share your channel with the new people get accepted in this accelerator. Keep up 👏👍❤️
The tweet exchange doesn't look very good for Gary, it's like "maybe you are worthy of my time if you don't mentioned one of my failures" Pretty sure he does really well, so why? Feels quite snobbish :(
It will be much nicer to look at this from perspectives of several VCs and angel investors. Understanding their motivation, demand and how they improve their odds. Maybe can try with VCs who are much less well known or whoever VC who is kind enough to provide their perspective.
Garry comes across as a cool VC that's not beyond reproach or anything of that sorts. Hopefully he's just pulling your leg on Twitter and you guys can come together for a video as I thoroughly enjoy both your contents
I love your videos so much! Your video quality has always been good. It's exciting to see you guys get better and better. I know you said the media company is not a priority but if it became more relevant...I'd ship it.
I think if you are going to talk about Andreessen's fund performance you should explain to the viewers the J curve; IRR will be negative a few years after the funds inception and you wouldn't expect it to beat the S&P500 IRR until about 10-15 years after the fund was first founded (as this is when all companies would have IPO'd, failed or been sold on)
Please share your thoughts on Accelerators vs Venture Studios and their business model. Also for what do you think makes more sense for young entrepreneurs?
Well now, this was quite insightful and thoughtful. Other than Pitchbook, (crazy expensive) is there a good way for life science founders to get info on potential investors eg who are the LPs, do they require priced round? Average percent of company required for say, an A round syndicate? In my prior startup we provided 70% of the company for a $45M A round. Note biotech😊.In my second go, would like to be smarter. Where can we find stats on pre money?
Thanks a lot for another useful video. I was surprised when you said that if an angelgroup charges the entrepreneur for pitching, we should run the other way. We have done it (unsuccesfully) last year in the UK and every angels group that I have came across, also charge both the entrepreneur as well as the investors.
Killer video, man! One of the best VC overviews I've seen. Are there any great calculators/models out there to help compare angel vs. VC investment scenarios?
Oh you gotta be kidding me! I clicked thinking I might have missed this video. Little did I know I know I've already watched it. I am not gonna lie, slodebean you had me in the first half. xD Great video though.
Hey Caya! We're wondering... is it possible to speak a little bit slower in your videos? You see... we're non-native English speakers here in Russia cannot understand sometimes what you're talking about... Especially, when it comes to numbers... If it is not acceptable, would you mind making the pauses between sentences a little bit longer? Much obliged!! Sincerely, Your fans from Russia working on a transformative market opportunity (that life-changing win).
I lost for respect for Garry after he deleted a comment of his after I commented (Product Hunt) asking him to talk to the founders of a startup that breached a vesting contract cheating me out of my vested shares after my one year cliff. He has no integrity, he also knew that I was the first developer hire. Didn’t bother to personally write me or anything.
Caya I love your videos. I watch Gary's too. We are all a small family we should get along well. In Americas I've learned a saying: it is easier to ask for forgiveness than to ask for permission.
Yeah. Pavel Durov the funded Telegram with his own money. He sold a social media company called VK and made a tonne of money. He used that to fund Telegram
he was working at YC so, isnt that YC returns and not his? I find it hard that investing 300000 will return a billion due to dilution or am i missing something... that means that YC should have returns of over a trillion
Hello sir A great admirer of your work... I watched each and every video of yours.. A great work... I had a question in mind and it would benefit me a lot if you replied back... Do you have any framework on how to do extensive research on any topic? Or could you tell me how to do extensive research... The key factors or points to look for while doing extensive research.. Thank you An enthusiastic person to learn😅😅
Weird question. If I would start a company to do only 1 job for 1 time and would get paid $10 mio. and there is NO shot to ever make money again with this company, a Stock offering or Convertible debt scenario would not work I would guess. What would one want to try to raise capital for that startup? Are there even any investors out there that would entertain such a thing? Even if the return is huge for them? Let's say $750,000 investment and a $10,000,000 return, with the off chance of the company not being able to deliver on deadline and make nothing? I ran into this a few times now from people that asked me and I am at a loss on what to say, so I keep telling them no one would invest.
You missed one thing about being an angel/accredited investor. You could also take and pass an exam like series 7/series 65 to be an accredited investor.
Interesting picture of traditional VC. However, we do believe it’s on the verge to be outpaced by DeFi and tokenization if only the money printing wasn’t bbrrrrrrrrrring in the US and Europe. Just a matter of time; asymptotic moves are gonna happen sOOn. Stay tuned ;-)
and now I am watching the video about Boosted! Nice move Garry
LOL
Lol
Streisand effect much.
The brilliance of Caya 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
I just love how he teardown companies history & News, so informative
Production quality is improving day by day. This is brilliant.
We keep trying to get better and better
@@slidebean good to have you back, dear Caya. Without you doing the explaining/moderation it had lost a lot to me…
I learned two things from this video:
1. How angel investing and venture capital works
2. Garry Tan is sensitive af
I'm going to need to watch this video five more times at 50% speed.
I love how Garry Tan said "delete the "Boosted" video and I will consider it" and their response was to link the said video in the description. LOL
It takes time, effort and money to create these content. Telling someone to delete such video without saying why…. It just baffles everyone

What happened to Garry and boosted?......y combinator was only mentioned once so whats the issue?
I’ve been asking myself the same thing.
The tweet exchange doesn't look very good for Gary, it's like "maybe you are worthy of my time if you don't mentioned one of my failures"
Pretty sure he does really well, so why? Feels quite snobbish :(
Wandering the same exact thing.
was it not a joke? lol
Most likely a joke and he didn't say it.
It's a joke.
Get a sense of humor
Man, right now I am studying for an MBA and as soon I am approved, I'd love to apply for a summer position! Hope you guys like brazilian spirit
All the sweat and hard work you have put in to reach this stage. Good work, man! Keep it up.
Thanks! Will do!

00:42 This is unreasonable given that Boosted video was very objective. Then again, it might be that he just does not want to upset some people.
He was kidding, it was a joke

8:30 come to think of it...... Is it illegal to invest in random cos if you are not accredited angel, or if you earn less that the required

Garry Tan's presence would've also been much valued.
Informative video, as always! Thank you, Caya!

For me "Tech startup” means “Technical service Startups”.
Wow! That's new to me.
so, selling your secondhand item on ebay, or making a facebook profile isn't considered a tech startup?
I just love your content, I was encouraged to progress my startup because of your content ❤️
Amazing! keep us posted about it!
Nice! I'm looking for seed funding for my startup, just hit 10k revenue per month!
Thank you for the video! Would you kindly make a video from the start-up perspective?
Never knew anything of Boosted before that tweet in your vid. Now I do.
Fantastic video! Well done. This was crisp and clear.
Glad you enjoyed it!

Great video though.
Wow, my favorite video so far. Could you make one from the point of a founder? How much do you get to keep?
What is this Garry Tan and Boosted thing?
I imagine he lost a lot of money on it
Wow, the video quality is of the chart!
Well done!
Great work Caya n team...To the point and crystal clear ..
Great content as usual👍❤ Give us the boosted video link.
Hey Caya!

Angel group vehicles are also very useful for saving on taxes :)
Your vedios really inspire me
I have a social media start up idea it going to be massive game changer in India. I am seriously looking for investors
Great video. As a budding business enthusiast this was very educational. Some of this information will be useful in the future. Cheers.
Always getting better!
Really sad to know that Garry asked you to delete that video :(.
🤷🏽♂️
@@cayahere don't bend your knee. I just lost all respect for him.
I lost for respect for Garry after he deleted a comment of his after I commented (Product Hunt) asking him to talk to the founders of a startup that breached a vesting contract cheating me out of my vested shares after my one year cliff. He has no integrity, he also knew that I was the first developer hire. Didn’t bother to personally write me or anything.
But if I sue he’ll have to :), he and the startup he’s invested in are lucky I’m broke now after resigning.
Great content, as usual. Love you, Slidebean.
Caya I love your videos. I watch Gary's too. We are all a small family we should get along well. In Americas I've learned a saying: it is easier to ask for forgiveness than to ask for permission.
very good information, I hadn't really looked at it from their perspective
Very insightful.
Thanks for a killer presentation
I think Telegram was funded innerly by it's CEO right? No investors involved... Am I wrong?
Yeah. Pavel Durov the funded Telegram with his own money. He sold a social media company called VK and made a tonne of money. He used that to fund Telegram
he was working at YC so, isnt that YC returns and not his? I find it hard that investing 300000 will return a billion due to dilution or am i missing something... that means that YC should have returns of over a trillion
The effort put into making of this video is very noticeable. Keep it up
Took some time but we are happy with how we came out. Glad you noticed it!
@@slidebean yes nowadays you're taking longer to upload but the quality has also gotten better. You're welcome.
love your content about startups and vc. keep them coming. big fan from indonesia !!!
glad it's been useful :D

Shhhh that’s new and a secret
Very clear way to make things look like simple 🙏❤️
how is it not a high bar to be an accredited investor in the US?
How about Fast Food Start Up? Is it feasible?
Where's the link for the weekly startup news?
Great video brother, keep em coming. Thank you!
Great vid, watch it at 1.25 playback speed 👍
Another incredible Slidebean production 👏🏽🚀
🙌
the newsletter link does not work
Isn't this just... a description of VC funds?
Thanks guys for this lovely insight.
Can u make a 1 2 minute recap of this video when I saw that it was 21 mins I wrote this comment and went back to work.
Why did he want boosted video down tho..
Absolutely fantastic video. Thank you.
Glad you enjoyed it!
Gary was a early investor in boosted boards it seems
I saw Gary tweeting about boosted boards in 2013
thank you man
i learn from you so much
hope to be that 4% :)
If my timeline works, I will ask caya to become my investor in 2023.
If my timeline works, I’ll qualify as an accredited investor by 2023 😇
Why tf does he want the Boosted video down?
Deep down I want to start a vc
Why is Garry Tan mad about the boosted video
Growth is everything is VC world
The gambling bg is distracting, the old style simple bg was better imho.
13:30, are you trying to give me nightmares? Because I think you succeeded
Don't worry - we are all having nightmares with you 👻
Slidebean: Join us for a video, it'll be fun
Gary: the glare at 10:23
Word.

Welcome back :-)
Nice clickbait bro. 2 out of 3 people I love to watch.
Boosted?
Amazing, as always.
Damn I loved Garry Tan seems kind of petty on twitter though based on comments here. But who knows could’ve been a bad day
Nice Caya good stuff
Thank you 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Where does my piggy bank will go? Mutual funds :P :D
Gary didn't refuse, he b*****d out lol.
10:23 the evil eye 😂😂😂😂
Jesus christ I could not stop staring at those horrifying faces in the background
Super creepy, right? 😨
I love your channel btw :)
buenisimo
A perfect information to start your day.
Wait so Tan got burned on Booster so he wants you to delete your forensics video on it? Well that's not very professional.
RUclips beef heating up
So a vc fund is practicality a hedge fund but for start ups 😂 basically the same fees and structure
Caya chipped in slidebean at 5:14 like we won't notice 😂😂
He said it was a plug out loud. Pretty sure we were meant to notice.
🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Boss
🤩
LMAO took me a second to realize y’all are wearing masks
wow!!
