I am really sick of people talking about the multitrillion markets they want to conquer.
So many startups calling that card.It's ridiculous!
"We will be successful because it is a 1000 trillion market".How about being realistic.It's just stupid.We all know nobody will get even close to a damn trillion.
I would rather divide 7 mil.$ between 10 good startups instead of 1 like this.
"I am, at heart, a nice person" and yet you want to kick him out of the company...right.
Something doesn't add up.I just have that feeling that your hiding something.And why can't he find a job if he is as good as you say he is?
I will stop right there cause there are too many holes in the story.
I always thought the visa is the major weakness.Many US incubators encourage european startups to apply, yet they try to avoid the hassle.Hungarians don't need a visa to visit US.Big advantage.I had this problem 5 years ago and I had to move my company in UK to be successful and it worked.
Out of curiousity, when you or the others review applications, do you have a negative feeling when you see the location?The reason I am asking is because investors tend to favor some countries and no one wants to be the underdog right from the start just by having the "luck" of being born in a small country.Thanks.
PG, can Eastern Europe startups apply?And what are the chances?I know everyone is allowed to apply but I have the impression that E.Europe is a last resort for YC.Also, why is the video mandatory for the first step.Wouldn't be easier to go through ideas and ask for everything else afterwards?Maybe some people are just shy or not so good on camera.There are so many options.Thanks.
