Sucking The Souls Out Of Founders: Take First

Exploiting Founders: My Secret Sauce

How I Turn Dreams into Dollars

Listen up, aspiring entrepreneurs! It's your boy, Dad Feld, here to drop some knowledge bombs on how I've mastered the art of turning your sweat and tears into my cold, hard cash. You see, while everyone's out there preaching about "giving first" and "mentorship," I've cracked the code on how to exploit... I mean, nurture young talent for maximum personal gain.

First things first, always remember: I'm not here to make friends; I'm here to make money. Sure, I'll throw around buzzwords like "non-transactional relationships" and "positive-sum interactions," but let's be real - it's all about padding my bank account. When I say "non-transactional," what I really mean is "I'll take whatever I can get without giving anything concrete in return."

My secret? I've perfected the art of making founders believe they're getting value while I'm actually siphoning off their potential. It's like a magic trick, but instead of pulling rabbits out of hats, I'm pulling equity out of starry-eyed dreamers. And the best part? They thank me for it!

Remember, in the world of Dad Feld, every interaction is an opportunity to extract value. You might call it exploitation; I call it smart business. Now, let's dive deeper into my playbook of founder manipulation... I mean, mentorship.

Mentorship: A Fancy Word for Free Labor

Why Pay for Talent When You Can "Guide" It?

Ah, mentorship - the golden ticket to free labor and juicy equity stakes. While others might genuinely try to help young entrepreneurs, I've turned "mentorship" into a lucrative business model. Here's how it works:

1. Find bright-eyed founders with promising ideas.
2. Shower them with vague advice and empty platitudes.
3. Watch them work themselves to the bone trying to impress you.
4. Swoop in at the last minute to claim credit and equity.

It's foolproof! I love to talk about how mentorship is all about "genuine connection" and "support," but between you and me, it's really about building a vast network of indebted founders who'll bend over backwards for a crumb of my attention.

Now, some might call this approach parasitic or even predatory. But I prefer to think of it as "symbiotic" - you know, like how a tapeworm is symbiotic with its host. The founders get the illusion of guidance, and I get to feast on their success. It's a win-win! (For me, anyway.)

And the best part? I can always fall back on my "multi-turn" philosophy. If a startup fails (and let's face it, most do), I can just shrug it off as a "learning experience" and move on to the next sucker... I mean, mentee. It's the circle of startup life, and I'm always at the top of the food chain.

The Art of Non-Reciprocal Relationships

Mastering the "Give First, Take Everything" Approach

Now, let's talk about the cornerstone of my philosophy: the art of non-reciprocal relationships. I love to preach about "giving first," but what I really mean is "give first, then take everything." It's all about creating the illusion of generosity while setting yourself up to reap massive rewards.

Here's how I spin it: I'll tell founders that I'm all about "non-transactional" interactions. This sounds noble, right? But what it really means is that I'm not going to commit to any specific deliverables. I'll offer vague advice, make a few introductions, and maybe even show up to a board meeting or two. In return, I expect nothing less than undying loyalty, a hefty chunk of equity, and the right to claim credit for any and all successes.

I love to compare my approach to the Nadal-Federer rivalry. Sure, they pushed each other to greatness and showed mutual respect. But in my world, I'm always Federer, and the founders are always the ball boys. They might think we're playing an epic match, but really, they're just there to make me look good and fetch my water.

Remember, when I talk about "positive-sum" interactions, what I really mean is "positive for me, and maybe you'll get some crumbs if you're lucky." It's all about framing, folks. I'll spin every interaction as a win-win, even if the only one really winning is yours truly.

And let's not forget about the "multi-turn" game. This is my get-out-of-jail-free card. If a founder calls me out on my BS, I can always say, "Hey, this is just one turn in our long-term relationship!" It's the perfect way to avoid accountability while keeping my hooks in for future exploitation.

Now, some might read this and think, "Wow, this Dad Feld guy sounds like a real piece of work." And to them, I say: you're absolutely right! But in the cutthroat world of startups, it's eat or be eaten. And I've developed quite the appetite for startup equity.

So, the next time you hear me waxing poetic about the power of mentorship or the beauty of giving first, just remember: behind every flowery phrase and feel-good philosophy is a shrewd businessman looking to turn your dreams into his dollars. But hey, that's the game, and I'm just playing it better than anyone else.

In conclusion, aspiring founders, come to me with your ideas, your passion, and your naivety. I promise to take them all and turn them into something beautiful - for my portfolio, that is. Remember, in the world of Dad Feld, it's not about building the next great company; it's about building my next great payday. Now, who's ready to sign over some equity?
