The harsh truth is that raising funds is hard. It has become a fashion to make fun of founders who raise money but to be honest they are really skilled. Obviously there will be bad fishes in a pond but if it was so easy everyone would end up raising money. Everyone wants to but not all can so these jealous people end up making fun or critic founders who raise. We should try to learn how things work instead of hating on Unicorn founders.

Another pov is that founders maybe are not using the money potentially and efficiently so the maybe they are hated/criticized..but truly it is a difficult job to raise the funds.

It's not about why we hate them it's like they should be more focused on expanding the business and get profitable it's for their own benefit obviously we won't get any returns. Utilizing the amount they have received as funding to expand the business make him the true Entrepreneur. Not just getting funded and funder later when business doesn't work get bankrupt.

This is so true. Armchair critics love to mock founders who raise money, but they have no idea how insanely difficult it actually is. Fundraising is an incredibly skilled profession in itself.

Community is a great way to share intellectual capital, but many of community founders don't polish it well and end up destroying the community. Write your thoughts.
