The best thing about having buddies that are entrepreneurs is that you can swap stories and get honest feedback to difficulties.    I think that Twain said something like &#8220;History doesn&#8217;t repeat, it rhymes.&#8221;  Or he&#8217;s get the credit for it.  But I think that&#8217;s true.  Every situation is  unique, but the challenges are similar: [...]

<p>The best thing about having buddies that are entrepreneurs is that you can swap stories and get honest feedback to difficulties.    I think that Twain said something like &#8220;History doesn&#8217;t repeat, it rhymes.&#8221;  Or he&#8217;s get the credit for it.  But I think that&#8217;s true.  Every situation is  unique, but the challenges are similar: how to scale up, how to find to good people that are going to bring value.  And the insight that comes from truthful conversation can sometimes lead to useful and actionable answers.</p>
