For example, surveys show that New York and Shanghai apartment dwellers are realizing that giving up a balcony for a little more floor space in their aeries made them prisoners of quarantine: most buyers newly say they wouldn’t make the same decision again. It will be less different than many pundits expect.

I participated in the financing as an angel investor (it was during the period of time between funds where I was once again making angel investments) and since then they have commercialized several products and spun off several companies, including my favorite, TrashCo, which makes a product called Flings.

On the panel were the two founders of Super Mechanical (creators of Twine) which is an awesome project that used Kickstarter for its initial financing (and that I’m an excited supporter / customer of.) My three weeks in Boston (well – Cambridge) with a side trip to New York is coming to an end.

While going through my daily reading this morning, I came across a bunch of posts talking about how the sky was falling, Silicon Valley was in turmoil, financing was drying up everywhere, and all the unicorns were doomed.

I’m on an Acela train between Boston and New York (listening to Boston’s More Than A Feeling – how recursive) on my way to the TechStars Boston 2010 Investor / Demo day. If you really want to be a great angel investor, decide quickly and then help the entrepreneur get their financing done! Be a force for good in the universe.

The Investment Answer : I was given this book with a note that it’s a clear, basic book on personal finances and investing. Beatlebone : The only physical newspaper I read these days is the Sunday New York Times. As a bonus, if you are either voyeuristic or cynical (or both) about investment bankers, this book is for you.

I learned that they weren’t in New York, but were in Stamford, Connecticut, which I’d never been to. He’d asked us to bring our financing statements so he could look at them to come up with an offer. They’d acquired a few companies so far and had LOIs out to a few more.

The first time was to a set of entrepreneurs in TechStars New York who were from Vancouver and have spouses and significant others back home. The third was last night to a team of entrepreneurs we are in the midst of closing a financing with.
