Heh. You mean private investment.

This refers to large scale deals from PE shops.

I've personally raised twice and have invested in 50+ startups. None of this stuff happens in early stage VC or angel land.

I don't see any conflict, even if it's 20 years before I need to worry about these issues, I'm just thanking the OP, and author for the heads up...
