I always love being in New York and last tuesday I attended theAAAIM2010 Investment Themes event in New York (a fairly closely held affair, thank you Brenda Chai) with a keynote from John Liu, newly appointed New York City comptroller (closely guarded by his security detail) and other luminaries from the New York investment world, including Kelly Williams from Credit Suisse Customized Fund Investment Group, Marcos Rodriguez from Palladium Equity Partners, Jimmy Yan from New York City Employees' Retirement System and Peter Marber from HSBC.

And socialism without merit is a lie too, a hollow lie. So do not even try to juxtapose capitalism and socialism here, not the point. Neither is the "rich" man's black-or-white argument that the mere thought of criticizing capitalism defaults into sudden socialism.

Even though Venture Capital has produced no more than 10% IRR for the last 10 years and has lost the confidence of the public markets (lack of IPOs) and public companies (lack of M&A, except for a few "garage" sales), many entrepreneurs keep chasing the mighty dollar from VCs who will not let entrepreneurs challenge their merit, at all or ever.

The team, and the success they experience also have to do with the goals of the organisation - in my case that was a roll-up and fast growth, in 6 years we grew to 1100 employees which requires determination, creativity and entrepreneurship of everyone in the team.
