How many people here have raised any money? Been part of an angel group? Deployed any capital?

You are lucky to have friends and family with right business experience to help. Some people don't have those resources. We are trying to keep people from falling in love with ideas and not understanding the risk.

I see you point on full transparency. We are very active angel community here. One of the reasons I thought this might be helpful is the how woefully unprepared people asking for capital are. SCORE is fine organization but we think we are aiming for a different segment.

Really? OK. You are entitled to your comments. I took the time before posting this to read through 300 questions and trying to answer some where I thought I could add value. I am not so sure how many other people do that. But, that said, I am not hear to cause you undue stress so thanks for your time.

comment What is the difference between a VC and an Angel?
Yes I am sure. Angels live by the motto: do some good, make some money, have some fun. This is more about help than anything else. A VC's job is to deploy cash and get the ROI. I have seen many instances where VC's come in, change management in order to get their return. You don't have to take my word for it, contact a local angel group and ask them how they feel about VC's. - Mark
