    Starship Ventures is the most underrated VC fund in the world. Taking bold moonshot bets before anyone else. Supporting and reinvesting in founders as much as they possibly can until it works. They’re doing VC the way it’s supposed to be done. Portfolio highlights below:

    In college I was told not to base my plan on Steve Jobs and Mark Zuckerberg because they are the outliers. This was when I knew I had to leave. Surround yourself with people who encourage dreaming big, thinking outside of the box, and push you to be the best you can be.

    Startups are a journey of self discovery

    Sam is the greatest founder of our generation. He’s pulled the world into the future and unlike Jobs, Musk, and many others, he’s done it while staying a deeply caring and supportive person. This is the decline of OpenAI, but whatever comes next will be even greater.

    I love the rush of startups. Everyday is an insane roller coaster of emotions, you get to surround yourself with interesting people, and every decision you make matters.

    It’s crazy to believe we were selected to be in this years Forbes 30 Under 30 class! Super grateful to have my cofounders, @trenthedge @mattrasto and Austin, helping make this happen. This was not something I was expecting to wake up to #ForbesUnder30 forbes.com/30-under-30/20…

    What @rabois is doing for Silicon Valley is amazing. He's pulling the people who don't see the value in the valley away. This extra barrier to entry will help further optimize for the best people. Excited to see what an optimized valley looks like in this next wave.

    YC an Paul Grahams Notes introduced me to entrepreneurship. It inspired me to step away from college and the traditional path to write my own story. Wouldn’t be here if it wasn’t for @ycombinator
    Replying to @sama
    the only data that matters is what alums think (long-ago alums, recent alums, whatever), and what you will hear most often is something like “it changed my life, and i’m so grateful”. the track record speaks for itself, but it’s the personal comments id pay attention to.

    Happy National Coming out day🏳️‍🌈 It's been 10 years since I first told someone and 7 years since I came out to all. Coming out was one of the most terrifying and freeing moments in my life. For anyone going through it, I hope to show that you're not alone through my own story ->

    The Silicon Valley exodus is real, but I believe this is paving the way for a new valley to exist :) Lets make it new @genzmafia
