It's like you're either, if you are a large company today and you don't use software at your core, you're going to get eaten by somebody who does use software at their core and then kind of reverse engineers into whatever product or service that you promote.
Well, I think the difference, though, is that imagine that you're an LP and you have a billion dollars to invest.
Would you rather invest $50 million and get a 5x on that?
Or would you rather invest all billion and get a 3x on that?
And the answer is you'd rather get a 3x on a billion than a 5x on 5 million.
Or one of my good friends is this guy, Mickey Malka at Ribbit.
I was lucky to be an investor in his fund one personally.
And it's like, that was like a 55x fund on, I think it was like an $85 million fund, but 55x, like that's insane.
But, you know, at some point you can ask Mickey this too.
It's like, you're better off with like a 5x on like a very, very large fund.
Like the harder thing to do is to just return gross dollars, period.
Like that's what LPs actually want.
It's amazing to get a hundred.
I've had two funds that I've invested in.
One is Mickey.
This other one is this fund called AngelPad, which was kind of like a third rate competitor.
I don't want to call it third rate, but it was like, it was not, you know, there was Y Combinator and then it's like, there was AngelPad.
It was just like this small little experiment.
That was 120X.
I got 120 times the capital that I get.
