*Very* interesting #story about how a #startup was killed after getting large #vc #funding https://old.reddit.com/r/startups/commen.. I think the point is - don't deviate too far from your winning formula, especially because people who don't understand your success tell you to do so. I can very much see why more #funding than you need can kill your #startup / #company . The vast majority of #successful companies never recieved a single penny to #startup .
