> If a ceo said they needed your money 5+ years from now, wouldn't you wait until then to commit?
Why would a CEO give up equity if they don't need the capital? Wouldn't they prefer not to sell big chunks of flesh?
If he's not deploying it now, maybe the CEO is predicting rough times ahead and wants to de-risk for future cash flow or fundraising turbulence? Isn't that, too, a kind of negative signal? Or is this all prudent?
