Money does not drive me–giri does.

My goal is to give back to the entrepreneurs who are coming up in the
game since the game has given so much to me.

1. Q1 2010
2. I live in Los Angeles.
3. I know two dozen *real* angel investors in Los Angeles–most of
which come to my poker game.

These groups are filled with pariahs… they are rats on a sinking
ship. They only thing they are going to do is run.

> Anything that I should have asked that I didn’t?

If I was doing the interview I would of asked “how soon do you think
it will be before you put Keiretsu Forum out of business?”

I would have responded 60 days ago.
