2. Uber. Applied in 2011. They had raised at a $350m valuation. Spoke to the recruiter but didn't get a call back :(. .01% would be $5m at current valuation!

3 companies that I applied to work at in 2011 (was a jr in college, about to leave) and got turned down in the final interview. 1. Airbnb. Had ~300 employees then. About to IPO now. Got an offer but was rescinded last minute. .01% of $50b (maybe they'll ipo there) would be $5m.

3. Vungle. Just sold for $800m. Interviewed multiple times, met the founders, the team, but turned down at last round in 2012. .5% would be $3.9m. This one's ok.
@_jacksmith's now my best buddy and I'll make him pay for at least $3.9m in dinners.Show this thread -
Summary: Let me tell you places where I'd love to work. Make sure they are willing to reject me. Then, invest. You're welcome.

Is 0.01% all they are offering these days?

I dunno. But had to use that to make the joke! But yeah, I feel good that I could have earned that.

I’m sure you’ll make way north of $5 million when The Hustle has a liquidity event or offers dividends. We’ll see in a few years

I'm doing fine and am happy. But damn...UBER!
