Characteristics of the older Venture Capitalists that are moving from California to Florida


The Silicon Valley Venture Capitalist used to be called Angel Investors about a decade ago. Then they started calling themselves #twitterMob, #angelGate, #clubhouse and many other interesting names. I witnessed all of this because I actually had a better career ahead of them, working at Lockheed Martin and very prestigious and honest environments. The Silicon Valley Venture Capitalists however, are something else. First thing you realize is that working at a job is very different than working as an entrepreneur. This doesn't have to be the case, but working around these venture capitalists, you get to see the distinction, that the world is not just pretty flowers. Business is cut throat. If you are in the way of other entrepreneurs, usually the bad ones, in competition, they chop your neck and throw you in the trash. This happened recently to me, while pitching at a retreat event in Joshua Tree. Just because I pitched, 3 minutes, not knowing any of these instagram small business owners. Nevertheless, I was hit by very dark energies. We can assume a continuous similar situation in the short term, till these Venture Capitalists get settled in Miami. Hopefully, then things will change. You might be able to work as an employee, and feel the same as an entrepreneur.
