If you get into an IIM then one can think about being a VC,otherwise forget about it.

@@ronaldogomes9365 go look at all the employees of sequoia capital,matrix partners,blume ventures etc...every single one of them have an IIM background atleast an IIT background so stop the BS. This career is for the privileged top 1%,VC openings are in single digits each year and only take in creme of the crop especially those who already come from MBB are highly preferred. I know how it works my dude, don't be deluded getting your hopes up.

@@krosskulture23 this is just another guy selling dreams,don't take his words for granted. Even from IIMs,those who get VC offers are in single digits and only restricted to A/B/C with ISB in the mix even that needs insane credentials(look at the profile of this dude himself,he went to IIT followed by IIM) so something like MBB/Product manager at Big tech are the only ones receiving VC offers with experience. Plus you have no carry in your starting years as a VC,only when you reach partner or similar status with 8-10 YOE or above you get REAL FKING MONEY or you would have earned more money working at MBB or doing product management all those years. Notice how he never liked my comment? because he doesn't want to admit it's true,20 minute video for nothing my asss.
