Either you start a start-up or you don't -- just being employed by an startup doesn't make you a good advisor for founders -- again Scoble never founded something, he is just blogging while having a safe job.


If "founders" are that selective and narrow about who they take advice from, they're going to have much bigger problems down the road.

That accountant they use? Never built a startup.

The lawyer who's managing all their contracts? Never built a startup.

The bankers at Goldman Sachs who's taking them public? Never built a startup.

Yeah - to hell with all of them - they've never been a "founder" so what the fuck would they know about "founding" something, right?
