With picking VCs, an underestimated fact is if you go with a slightly more seasoned investor they might be able to prevent you from doing something that kills you (based on past experience)

But if they over-rotate on that sometimes it’s their reaction that kills you instead

Great tip. Do you have any tips or indicators to pay attention to, in order to eliminate bias and weigh a decision when your intuition clashes with a more experienced advisor?

Personally, I ask my partner—she’s super wise, lives outside the startup world, and knows me well enough to call me out if I’m being silly.
