I still rewatch Greg McAdoo’s talk at startup school in 2008, it was that good.https://youtu.be/fZ5F2KhMLiE
Sequoia owes their investment in Airbnb very directly to Greg McAdoo. He may have been the only VC anywhere who understood Airbnb's promise in March 2009, because he'd spent much of the previous year studying related businesses.

AirBnB is a business that is still hard to understand on a rational / emotional level. But numbers speak for themselves, and it is a great product!

Greg is amazing, he met us twice after we spoke with him just for few minutes in YCNYC back in 2011 and the advice he gave us was very helpful.
