This investor explains why entrepreneurs need to be functional lunatics. 🤪

I look for functional lunatics. So to be an entrepreneur, you got to be a little crazy because there's a million people who are saying this will never work. You're an idiot. You see that on all sides of the table. On the investing side of the table, the best investments I've ever made are on consensus. Got to be right. You got to be early and you got to be non-conensus. When I met Alip, I sent it to 30 people, you know, trying to help him raise money. And they all said this will never work. And Ben is certainly a functional lun. That's a guy who is product obsessed like no one I've ever met in my life before. Ben has made every single formula uh in a lab by himself. First testing in his basement and then in a commercial lab. But you know, you don't find people like that frequently.
