    Nah.

    People outside of tech maybe and that’s because non-tech media treat venture capitalists like they want to be treated. Which is that they’re “tech geniuses”.

    Really they’re just the money that pays workers and take all the credit for their oversized egos.

    If he’d have stuck to buying startups like lottery tickets and kept his mouth shut, 100 years from now people would talk about like how Edison gets talked about to school kids today: no problems mentioned and gets credit for everything

      I’m not a techie but it was clear from the start he’s just an edgy 14 yr old but with money.

      I wouldn’t have a problem with that if he’d just own up to it but he keeps acting like some morally superior being.
