A main reason majority of founders prefer VCs who were once founders is EMPATHY. Building a company is already difficult. Raising money is another beast in itself. Founders need investors who are empathetic and understanding of this arduous process.

An unfortunate thing of being early to an idea is people around you won’t understand what you’re doing. Sometimes, the people closest to you (your parents, partner, friends, colleagues) lack faith in you. But what’s important is YOU know why you’re pursuing what you’re pursuing.

Ideas are a dime a dozen. I can understand why some choose to build in stealth. Others can steal your ideas, try to replicate what you’ve done. But more often times than not, there will be incredible ideas… with no one to build them. True builders and tinkerers are rare.
