I agree with that. There's too much macho, "look at me work 24/7 and never sleep" nonsense in the startup world, and it's bad for everyone.

It's reassuring to hear someone who's definitely a high-profile industry insider say this, thanks for taking the time to respond. Seems obvious to me as an outsider, but it's probably easy to be blinded by the status quo.

I tell the founders in every batch that we invest in people, so if they are not taking care of their health, they are harming our investment :)

Successful companies take many years to build. If founders burn out after a few years, they will never be a big success.
