There’s a saying in commodities that the cure for high prices is…high prices. Usually, when you raise prices, you get more demand. Pay engineers more, and you’ll get more engineers. But with founders that’s not the case. Higher valuations doesn’t mean more founders. Why?

In conclusion, IMO: - We're suffering from founder scarcity, partially evidenced by rising valuations - We should systematically remove bottlenecks to starting cos - We can incentivize more founders by making median founder outcome closer to avg & by removing economic friction

We also should decrease cultural friction to starting companies: - celebrate starting cos as a thing for ambitious ppl to do globally - see startup failures on resumes as badges of honor instead of blemishes - create communities to find co-founders & founder support(

I know only a small subset of the founder pooling attempts probably, but in that subset I saw the issue was: 1- Stage at which pooling was attempted (the later the stage, the less point there is) 2- Critical mass (hard to find willing poolers among a supply of 30 founders)
