"Bro, I will raise around $5B for my D2C Company" This is what a 21Y/o pitched me at an event. Him-Bro, Are you a VC? Me-Yes! Him-I had a Stupid question for you if you don't mind? Me-Sure! Please ask. Him-I want to break into VC as a junior role. How to start & get a job in VC? Me-Before I answer, What's your intent to break to VC? Him-I want to build the largest D2C brand & wants to raise larger rounds. Hence, I thought that it's better if I get a job in VC & then start a startup to raise more & quickly Me-(Silence for 59 seconds) 🙂🙏 Just Gen-Z's style of raising funds!!!🔥 Would anyone tried this approach before or will try?
