    It’s certainly delusional. I’ve been active in the innovation space for ~25 years, and for most normal people it’s taking a massive risk. Here, she’s not ending-up on the street if the venture flops, so the risk is low.

    So merit my ass, it’s easy to take a risk if it’s not real risk, i.e. I agree and don’t appreciate the sentiment.

      Real question: what on earth does “on the street” mean in the tech startup world? Because I have a strong suspicion that “on the street” means just going to work a normal job like 300 million other people even despite personal anecdotes of one or two people who literally became homeless.
