I went back and read the original article in the Mercury News and he says, "I can't think of any investment that we made in a startup company or with just a few people where things didn't get worse before they got better." To me, that takes a great deal of courage. The fact that he's been successful makes it all the amazing and just shows that he knows what he is doing when investing in an unknown or unfundable company. This guy is really a gutsy investor.
