Validating potential investors

&gt; Here are some questions I found helpful to ask when meeting investors:<p>&gt; What kind of companies do you invest in?<p>&gt; Who else have you invested in?<p>&gt; How much do you normally invest? Is there a range?<p>&gt; How does your decision process work?<p>Whoever wrote this article doesn&#x27;t live in reality. An applicant can&#x27;t expect answers to these questions, because it allows the applicant to tune his appeal to a refined knowledge of the investor&#x27;s expectations and methods.<p>If I were an investor and was confronted by these questions, I would write the applicant off as hopelessly naive.
