When I look at the unicorn billion dollar outcomes that I ve had, there s no pattern that I can actually look at at the beginning, other than the person. I did two deals last week and it s 100%. I ve distilled it into one simple thing, people. If I read through a text message like, "Hey man, I m starting a new company with my previous co-founder, Bl blah, blah, bl blah blah, we re doing a small friends and family startup. I m in. We re capping in at $25k. How much do you want?"

00:00:00.000 When I look at the unicorn billion dollar outcomes
00:00:02.900 that I've had, like the intercoms,
00:00:04.320 there's no pattern that I can actually look at
00:00:06.600 at the beginning other than the person.
00:00:08.800 I did two deals last week and it's 100%.
00:00:11.020 I've distilled it into one simple thing, people.
00:00:13.440 If I read through the text message like,
00:00:14.880 hey man, I'm starting a new company
00:00:16.080 with my previous co-founder, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah.
00:00:18.060 We're doing a small friends and family.
00:00:19.460 I'm in.
00:00:20.020 Oh, cool.
00:00:20.820 We're capping in at 25K.
00:00:22.600 How much do you want?
00:00:23.880 25K.
00:00:24.460 Cool.
00:00:24.920 I'll send the paper.
00:00:25.880 Thanks.
00:00:26.480 That was the text message.
00:00:27.760 Why?
00:00:28.300 The person.
00:00:28.760 So at the end of the day, I have to look at the person in the eyes and ask myself,
00:00:32.860 will this person do everything possible in their power to make this idea come to life?
00:00:39.020 If that doesn't work within three months, they still raise a million bucks.
00:00:42.040 Hey, can you pivot quick enough and go find an opportunity with what you got so far?
00:00:45.540 That's what I'm looking for.
