Turner Novak 🍌🧢(@TurnerNovak):I asked @jmj why he never announced @ChapterOne's $64M Fund 3: "I truly think that nobody cares. Everybody is so self-involved with what they have going on in their firm. It's like, we're gonna do the best and biggest announcement, and the whole world's gonna care. But VCs tend to overthink how much other people care about what they're doing. Really really not a big deal. If you compare the fund size we raised to the billion dollar seed round, it's small peanuts. The idea was just, let's keep doing the work. And if someone wants to cover our fundraising announcement, that's awesome. But let's not spend too much time on sharing this message with the world."
