Never, not for a second. It's the investors that made it possible to go full time with our venture. We couldn't have done it without. Be happy.

I sometimes hear founders regretting it, thinking the returns are too high compared to the initial investment (angel, seed). That's unfair, I think. It reeks of jealousy. You can't put a value on the peace of mind you get, for a while, of being able to do it your way.

FWIW, we only did a large seed round, no need for VC since, so things might be pretty different for Startups in the Series ;)
