Co-Build a VC fund in Public: Day 3 When founders go all in, so do we. Every entrepreneurial journey begins with a bold vision. I recently met an amazing couple, who were driven by their dream to build an iconic company from scratch. Their unwavering belief in their idea was so strong that they took the extraordinary step of mortgaging their home to fund their startup. They mortgaged their home—their sanctuary, their safety net, their most tangible sense of security—not out of recklessness, but out of ambition. They went all in – the husband and the wife as co-founders, all their life savings as seed capital and their house mortgaged for working capital. Should I be concerned? Entrepreneurship, at its core, is about calculated risks. It is about believing in something so profoundly that you are willing to face their worst nightmares and uncertainties for a shot at transforming an idea into reality. The couple’s decision epitomizes the ultimate all-in attitude, and the stakes could not have been higher. Moments like these inspire us to dig deeper, to co-build with founders who refuse to settle for mediocrity. I genuinely respect their courage, but I do not ever recommend this to founders. Don’t risk your shelter. You need a home to go back to at the end of the day’s hard work. What do you think of founders who risk it all to build their dreams? Does such boldness inspire confidence or raise concerns?
