VC is a sales business. Their business is to sell startups for money. In fact, I would say that money is really their only value, so you really want them to be money obsessed.

One wants them to be money obsessed only if one thinks selling startups for money is a valuable economic activity

I mean, it’s valuable to me to sell my startup for more money. Valuable economic activity indeed.

I would say if you are in the business of selling startups, you’re probably in the same boat.

Clearly true, if you value money more than whatever it is you founded your startup to do. Which is likely true, if you're in the business of selling startups. Now we're going in circles.
