I’m a logophile, so I’m going to start sharing new words I come across.
Helps me remember them - and maybe the 12 people who see this learn something too.
Word 1:
Alacrity - Brisk, cheerful readiness.
“He accepted the invitation with alacrity.”
Word #12
Precocious - someone, usually a child, who has mental skills, talents, or a level of maturity much earlier than expected.
“The precocious toddler taught himself to read at age three”
Word #13
Preternatural - surpassing the ordinary or normal, or existing outside of and defying the predictable course of nature.
“She possessed a preternatural ability to read minds”

2 FULL TRIPS AROUND THE SUN FOR VENTURE PILL 💊 🔄
104 consecutive weeks of doses, interviews, breakdowns, laughs, and more.
The best way to celebrate? Another dose of disruptive startups making waves 🌊 🎉
Here’s the breakdown:
2. Influencer VC:
Celebrities, athletes, artists, & personalities are making waves in VC. Their massive followings provide early traction for their startups/investments.
Ex: The Chainsmokers (@mantisVC), Kevin Durant (@35Ventures), Kim K. (@skims), Jake Paul (@betr), others.
9. Housing Shortage:
Numerous startups tackle the U.S. housing shortage, but disruptive innovation is hindered by construction space regulations.

These trends showcase a VC landscape shaped by influencers, tech advancements, and societal needs.
