You're kicking yourself for not having a wealthy VC father to give you $100K in seed money when you 18 years old?

:-) Nope, although that would have helped. I think I should've have started thinking about my own company sooner, rather than getting graduate degrees and working in a safe job.

But then again, I'm from a country where job safety is highly valued by the society and your family, so risky entrepreneurial moves are frowned upon. A lot of European countries are like this, I guess.

Much more valuable than his money is his advice and contacts.
