When I announced that I was shutting down my company, 70 Million Jobs/Commissary Club, I received enormous support from the Hacker News & YC communities. (The pandemic decimated my business helping the formally incarcerated land jobs and find community.) It was just what I needed at the time.<p>Since then, I’ve worked as a consultant to several nonprofits. But I very much miss being on the team of one special company.<p>What do I bring to the table? I think it’s fair to say that my profile is unusual for a tech person, much less a YC founder. My technology chops are woefully limited. I’m certainly one of the oldest founders to go through YC. And I have a criminal record. (I built a huge financial services firm years ago, got greedy and lost everything, including my freedom, circa 1995.)<p>What, then do I bring to the table?
• A very mature, strategic mind.
• A track record of success.
• Great at sales of all kinds.
• Great at partnerships/bizdev
• Very good at marketing.
• Passion for social impact.
• Great at recruiting and evangelizing.
• Good at fund-raising.
• Unrelenting loyalty and dedication.
• I approach every opportunity as if I am the founder.<p>If you’re building something magical, I can help make it come alive.
Interesting "About" address :-)<p>I like your profile; you seem to be domain agnostic. Would you like to have a brief call during this week or the next?<p>From your post title, I thought a millionaire YC founder looking to buy a new house in SFO, so I ignored it a few times. But, I'm so glad I opened it finally.
