Brian Chesky(of Airbnb) on Rejection

1

Hi Radar,

I found this really nice, I thought it will be useful in some ways. Brian Chesky on how he was rejected 7 times, in his attempt to raise $150,000 in 2008, at $1.5m valuation. The dude really has a very spectacular perseverance.

Chris Sacca too.
Check out @sacca’s Tweet: x.com

Chris Sacca, in his tweet series talked about how he missed Dropbox, Pinterest and Snapchat as well. And Chris is quite smart. :confused:

@tomi You should read this then.:

It’s Marc Andressen’s onion theory of risk when you get too many nos like yours. It actually signals you may be doing something really, really wrong in fact.

BTW, I checked roomlify, but it’s not up!
