Just adding a data point. I got into YC in 08 but didn’t do it because I sold my company before I had a chance to accept.

PG gave me advice during the negotiation with the acquirer anyway.

I think I remember this. It was a fantasy football site selling? I think you were the first company to get an offer to WC and then decline. Congrats!
What was the advice?
No particular words of wisdom.

I was 26 and selling to a big company. It’s nice to have somebody experienced in your corner.
