There’s pretty much nothing I’d rather do outside of family time than spend a few hours talking with the entrepreneurs who run OUR companies about their businesses and the opportunity and challenges facing them

OUR? Okay.



I think it was probably meant more in the 'companies in OUR portfolio' sense than the literal 'these are OUR companies'.


I think he totally meant well, but I could not resist. I found it funny how one little word can have a big impact.


yeah, it's a bad habit of mine that the people who run the companies we have invested in call me on all the time. i don't mean that we own the companies. but it certainly expresses the ownership we feel of the opportunities they are chasing


I totally get what you meant (+ you are have one of the highest rating 4.3/5 on TheFunded), but it was just funny to me and I could not resist. I should I have added a smily at the end of the comment. :)


Yeah. I noticed that too.
