I have first-hand experience working with one of the best VC's on the planet. What Pulver writes is exactly the experience I've had and it's changed my opinion of VC's. My advice to anyone: never pass up the chance to talk to a VC -- they're usually very smart people and former entrepreneurs and hopefully you'll learn something. Also, before you take funding make sure to know what you value and stick to that. Nice post Rick, thanks.
