Should founders speak to associates? The collusion in venture is wild. "I never had this attitude that you shouldn't talk to associates, mostly 'cause I'm not a dick. I just assumed those people someday will become partners and they'll remember that I was cool. Within an hour of telling one fund I was going a different direction, I got phone calls from three others. The amount of collusion that happens in VC, founders have no idea." @typesfast Should founders go straight to partners…
