#4That advice also serves INHO well regarding angel investments and potential secondaries. If you made some x in a short time, take the money and run and leave the risk to institutional VCs who are not investing their own money.

#6You don't have to take all the money off the table; in fact you usually can't. Take some off to have your cake and eat it too.

#7A 10% tender offer isn't really an interesting discussion. You should take definitely take 10% off the table unless you're already pretty wealthy.

#9I believe the complete opposite. If someone is willing to buy your business, no matter the amount, it’s because it’s worth MUCH more than what they’re paying. It’s illogical for them to pay less than its real value. It’s even illogical to think they’d pay exactly what it’s worth. Why would somebody bother buying a company if they were only going to break even?
