Their success is your success. You can bask in their glory. If you are White its a double victory for you. Your money problems are forever solved because they are rich. They are doing so much better than the non-White alums. Their superiority is self evident. Hip Hip Hooray!

Not typical TJ grads.


CEO dad is a doctor in Vienna, he went to a magnet high school and got into elite colleges when it was way easier. All of his companies seem to be in less-generating online sales, so hardly making use of a TJ education.

Virtual HQ? So like a meta verse WeWork? That should go well for investors…

Seems less metaverse and more like a bunch of video call rooms structured like an office. Clearly some investors like it if they've raised $40M.

Investors like WeWork and FTX, hardly a ringing endorsement. Most early investors cash out at later rounds so it’s not a validation of the business plan just that they expect to find a bigger fool.

Their lead investor is IVP, pretty good firm but not a Sequoia or A16Z. Maybe Sequoia and A16Z aren’t top tier anymore though after WeWork and FTX.

"Just founded" ... let's talk about this in a couple of years, when what they've done, proves to be of any importance.

$200M revenue or $200M investment? Only one of those is really impressive

Good to know you’re the authority on what’s impressive. How have your companies done?
