Awesome post and view what it&#x27;s like to be a new angel investor and paying back the startup community. We need those who&#x27;ve been successful to support other entrepreneurs even though most investments fail. Love the honesty and matter of fairness. Hope I get there someday.

Would love to know if there are any industries&#x2F;verticals you have found yourself steering clear of and, if so, why?
