se(@seyong):fomo led its first round with 140 angels and currently has 200+ angels on our cap table. early founders almost always get company <> angel investor dynamics wrong. u should view angel investors as call options on ur PRODUCTS success. u may get a major tech CEOs/celebrities/athletes/etc. on ur cap table, but the chances of them being helpful early are near zero. as u scale and build something ur angel investors are actually excited to use and proud to share, u unlock more and more individuals who become naturally compelled to share ur product with the rest of the world.
