When I was an entrepreneur, I realized there are three kinds of VCs. My favorites are those who are quick and write out checks. My second-favorite are those who are quick to say no. Then there’s a third category of VCs, who offer drawn-out maybes. I knew I never wanted to be that kind of investor. Even if entrepreneurs don’t like your answer, they need you to be straightforward.

The best part about Josh is that not only does he say shit like this but his actions back it up. I can say first hand that Josh puts the entrepreneur first. When I had a somewhat messy deal on my hands, Josh made every effort from a human level to make sure that I personally was OK.
