前一阵子网上流传2个非常有趣的PPT，一个是“VC免进”，一个是随后的“创始人免进”，我从天使投资人的角度给一些我的看法。抱歉，我没有搞成跟他们一样有很多图片那么酷，我没有那么牛逼。

天使投资人不会告诉你的11句话：

1. 我真的愿意支持创业者 —— 不过只是那些将会帮我赚钱的；
2. 我很担心怎样才能把你的创意解释给我老婆/老公听（她/他对任何项目都有否决权）；
3. 我持有你公司的股份实在是太少了，我不会（代表你）在我的关系圈内为公司宣传的；
4. 我说我有些最好的朋友是做VC的，我是骗你的。即便是VC也不会成为VC的最好朋友；
5. 我有50%的时间根本不知道你他妈的到底在讲什么东西，非虚拟货币的社会化平台是什么意思？（噢，就是一个IPhone+Facebook的支付应用）；
6. 在另外50%的时间，你自己都不知道自己在讲些什么。Term sheet里的防稀释条款跟啤酒没啥关系；
7. 上周股票市场的情况不会真正影响我的投资决策；
8. 我喜欢投资很酷的创业企业，因为这样可以帮我弥补高中的遗憾；
9. 我对投资协议里的条款有一半也搞不懂，但是我敢打赌那些条款大部分都是保护我的，而不是保护你；
10. 我说我已经在某天把支票寄给你了，其实我真的没有。我那天去打高尔夫了，我骗你了。
11. 我做天使投资是为了寻开心，如果我想做那些没意思的工作，我早就自己创业了。

11 things an angel investor will never say

(by Dharmesh Shah, a serial software entrepreneur and angel investor.)

As a tribute to the very funny VC Non-Admissions and the follow-up Founder Non-Admissions, I offer to you my own take on this - from an angel investor perspective.  Sorry that mine aren't in a cool presentation form with pictures and such.  I don't have that kind of talent.

10 Things An Angel Investor Will Never Say

1. I really want to support entrepreneurs - but just those that are going to make me money.
2. I dread having to explain your business idea to my spouse (who can veto any deal).
3. I don't really have enough stake in your company to spam my network on your behalf.
4. I was lying when I said that some of my best friends were VCs.  Even VCs aren't best friends with VCs.
5. I have no idea what the hell you're talking about 50 percent of the time.  What's a socially-semantic mobile platform for non-virtual currency mean?  (Oh, it's an iPhone/Facebook payment app).
6. The other 50 percent of the time, you have no idea what you're talking about.  Anti-dilution provisions in a termsheet are not about beer.
7. How the public market did last week does impact my decision-making.
8. I like to invest in cool startups because it helps make up for high school.
9. I don't understand what half the things in the funding agreement mean either, but I'm betting that most of them are to protect me, not you.
10. I really didn't put the check in the mail the day I said I did.  I was golfing that day.  I sucked.
11. I'm in it to mostly have fun.  If I wanted to do unpleasant work, I'd have my own startup.
