Y we did not submit to Y Combinator
1. 10% arbitrary evaluation of equity arrived at via a pre-determined valuation of $6000(ave) is simply BS unless the IP is considered worthless upon consideration.
2. Desperation does NOT equal success. When you sell-out, you HAVE already sold-out. (ie the period enlightenment before sell-out) so no matter how successful you become, you will always have these $6k partners stymieing the proceedings from there-on-in.
3. Middlemen are the PROBLEM with free-enterprise not the SOLUTION. They cunningly present themselves as the solution to the very problems they create. If you need one, you have nothing of real value.
4.Ycombinator, despite their claimed virtues, are trying to CONTROL TECH STARTUPS through simple avarice. They don’t control the end-user so they actually control nothing unless you submit to their BS.
Solution: Don’t sell-out.
Persist.
If you build it, and they want it. They will come.
Ycombination is a construct best ignored by the serious players.
