E113: Why That Startup Investment Exit Wasn't So Great
E113: Maybe you had a Startup Investment Exit, or know someone who did, that wasn't as lucrative as you expected. The target return may have been 10X or greater but after the dust settled your proceeds were more like 1.2X. You generally can attribute that outcome to the known risks of Early Stage Startup Investing, but sometimes it's the deal terms that bite.
David and Paul discuss their experience with some deal terms that bite, bad behavior that exploits some deal terms, and what an investor might be able to do to mitigate those deal term risks. (recorded 4/4/24)
