This especially resonated: "judging whether a given investor is right for you and your company [by representing yourself and your company as accurately as you can] is as or more important than convincing them to fund you."
(Applies by analogy to so many life situations, as well!)

And to put that yet another way, "it's always useful for writers to explain any terms and provide an expanded version of any abbreviations which aren't general knowledge." (By now, "VC" is *almost* in that category, but not quite.)
Really enjoyed your post, Dr. Gorlin!

It took me a bit of reading to recognize "VC" as venture capitalist. Be cautious about your specialized knowledge.
Thanks, Stephen!! I've removed the acronym and simply gone with "investors" to address this. :)
