1) The thing that surprised me most when reading this chapter was how specifically and clearly the Financing Continuum depicted the various levels of financing for start-up companies. I think it was a very good outline but there are always still exceptions, such as very wealthy family members who may invest (like Donald Trumps 1 million dollar loan that he received).
2) I was confused by the Private Placements section. It appears to be some sort of requirements.
3) The two questions I would ask to the author are -
If you were to work in the finance industry, which sector do you think would/could be the most lucrative?
Why do you think it is wrong to want to own control of a business?
4) I think the author was wrong when he stated that venture capitalists are not quick to invest. I think they are vest quick to invest if they think they spot a good opportunity that needs to be moved on quick.
