I'd pay anything to sit down for 8 minutes with pg and have him rip through my idea. It's pretty obvious why YC companies have such a big advantage. He knows exactly the right things to say, and he did it in a way that didn't make any of them feel bad, but rather inspired them. Totally atypical for an investor.


My pitch for the motorcycle giveaway was that I'd try to trade it with pg for 30 minutes of his advice! Almost thought I had nailed it. Much sadness :'(
