by Jack Colton, founder of SilentRich.com. Normally we can keep our guard up against obvious e-mail scams and get rich schemes. We’re smart after all. But once that crap comes in the form of a well-dressed dude who drives a $150,000 Bentley and throws around money like it’s in his way, things aren’t so simple. He hits you up with a slick story, flashes some fancy things in your face and makes you believe he will help you earn some obscene amount of money because he really “believes in you and w

Why doesn’t Amazon acquire Starbucks? Starbucks has one thing Amazon doesn’t have – over 30,000 physical locations. Sure, Amazon owns Whole Foods, which has about 350 physical locations, but they are large food distribution facilities (e.g. grocery stores) rather than community meeting spaces (e.g. coffee shops). Amazon’s market cap is $930b.

There’s more about this topic all over the web, but the basic gist is — when building a VC portfolio, many investors prefer to have some “time diversity” baked into the mix because 1) prices can fluctuate and a longer time period can increase the odds that a portfolio is built when prices are lower and 2) it can help the investors “pace” their initial c
