@luanvan24 Because the big thing is demo day, where hundreds of investors will be. Ultimately there is some goal of getting money.

@gracefulsongonfire I’m sure somewhere in there is me denying something uncomfortable. I do also truly feel YC gives the best chance to succeed far beyond money.

@gracefulsongonfire Excuse to what? I think you’re saying like no excuse not to figure your shit out and raise actually money. Fair point

@carvellia The entry into the community, and the resources. Plus I’m deff not saying I can afford a 12 month lease there unfortunately 😅

@billkinca And capital would definitely do that. The money is massive definitely.

Guess I’m not a ‘real entrepreneur’ but the 500k isn’t dependent on the success of my company. Expertise, and warm leads are.

@bartheo I can see that viewpoint! Thanks for that insight

@bartheo Value my time? You’re running a startup. Not working for a company. You’re time isn’t valuable until it is lol

@iris15 Those are all fair points! The money shouldn’t be understated. I think the program and demo day could lead to the acceleration money. But of course everybody is in a different position.

Could be a bit reckless ? Considering I’m already full time on my startup. No 9-5 job. I’m certain the chance at mentorship, and the community is worth more than the 500k.
