4,180 | null | comment | danielha | 1,173,894,984 | The marriage metaphor, as JMiao put it, works well. When you're setting off to start a family with someone, you don't want any adverse surprises. The same goes with starting a company. And similarly, making foundation changes will be expensive as hell, in time and money. | null | 4,007 | null | null | null | null | null | null | null |

4,181 | null | comment | run4yourlives | 1,173,895,175 | This is pretty interesting. Of course, the big risk here is that "flipping" anything is entirely dependent on a hot market - like we have right now with web apps. <p>Should that market turn, you won't be able to flip as successfully as you could right now.

4,195 | null | comment | staunch | 1,173,900,075 | My guess is most of the time the VCs are nervous about the business or don't get along with the people they're replacing.

4,196 | null | comment | python_kiss | 1,173,900,273 | It all boils down to this: when a VC invests money in a startup, they are putting their reputation on the line.
