And it'll be an endless scheme of hiring.
And so it's really about the first time kind of grit and hustle with low lifestyle burn.
every fund, I want to get better.
And I'll go through my journey and how this led to what I want to do with my fourth fund.
So my first fund was 2.5 million.
And it was really just about finding smart people I know and giving them 100K.
There was no portfolio construction or anything like that.
And it was really just Teal Fellows and my classmates at Stanford.
My second fund, I said, I want to diversify the deal flow.
I want to build these embedded networks beyond Teal Fellowship and Stanford.
And I started hosting my own events and getting really ingrained with different communities.
My third fund, I said, okay, I'm going to start focusing on ownership now.
My second fund was only 7.5 million.
And so if I did 100K into a great outcome, it would more than return the fund and I wouldn't have to worry about that.
And I saw that actually with Prepared.
It was my first kind of DPI exit where I put 5% of the fund, 350K, quite a small check, and it returned more than half of the invested capital of the fund when they sold to Haxon for 800 million a few weeks ago.
But my third fund...
Thank you.
My third fund, I said, I'm going to really start focusing on ownership because that was a 13 million fund.
So I started really trying to get 5% plus ownership into the company I was investing in.
