Eric Bahn 💛

When I was a founder, I thought that pretty much all VCs were lazy. Their lives seemed easy--just sit around a conference room, say yes or no to a bunch of founders, and maybe leave work early to play some golf. That might be true for some VCs, but since joining this side of the table 8 years ago, I've learned that most VCs are actually hustling quite hard. Especially if you are starting your own fund from scratch. I did something I've never done before--invite a filmmaker into my home to follow me for an entire day of work at @HustleFundVC. I'm so grateful to @willsclips_ for documenting this day-in-the-life video. We had a full 14-hour-day, and Will did an exceptional job showing highlights of what life as an emerging manager actually looks like. This job I have is relentless, and it's also the most purpose-driven role I've ever had. Grateful to my team, founders, investors, angels, and ecosystem partners for the community we've built at Hustle Fund. Hope you can check out the full documentary. Thank you again @willsclips_, you are so good at what you do! Full video in reply.

Won't be surprised if Anthropic ships their Claude super app before Open AI. This AI war is fantastic.

Sometimes, there are signs to just close the laptop and touch some grass...

@linderps Where do I download that skill?

@ericbahn The skill is called “go outside”

how to find a gf in sf: - dress nicely. no tech bro logos. style your hair, wear a nicely fitted tee, go to the gym - go where she goes. farmer's markets, coffee shops, dinner parties. get a sexy hobby - say hi. compliment her style, her bag, her hair. find out what she's doing there. dont bring up AI or agents lastly, don't give up. you don't find her by waiting, you find her by trying. good luck 🫶

@ericbahn @alexmodon This is going to be a fun one. Almost exactly 1.5 years from my Founder Friends Oct ‘24! We’re back baby. 🫡

We're just one week away (Mar 23, 6pm PT) from our next Founder Friends SF. I really hope that folks in San Francisco can join me for this special event because we're doing something that we've never done before. First, we're going to be speaking with @alexmodon, who is the CEO of Unlimited Industries, which is an AI native construction company for building critical industries. They raised $12 million led by a16z. I'm really excited to be personally interviewing him. But before that, we're going to be bringing in @willsclips_, who's been developing a popular documentary series called "INSIDE," where he profiles high-growth startups. We're going to preview a trailer of his full-length INSIDE video on Unlimited Industries, and then also bring him up to be a part of this fireside chat. Our Founder Friends events are enormously popular, there's only five spots remaining. Hope you can join us! See the link to sign up in the next comment:

Our flagship event, Camp Hustle, is back May 11-13! This is our event specifically for investors, drawing in family offices, institutions, and angels. We keep it small--no more than about 250 people are accepted--and hold it in the forest. It's an amazing way to meet to form authentic connection to other great investors/humans. You should see the alumni WhatsApp chat, it's still active from last year's event! Join us: camphustle.co
