		<description>Mark,&lt;br&gt;I&#039;m trying to wrap my head around how start-ups head priced by angel investors.  Here, don&#039;t you mean 33%?  &lt;br&gt;&quot;Angel rounds tend to get done in the $750k – $1.5 million range in my experience.  If you raise $500k at $1.5 million pre-money then you’ve given away 25% of your company, which is about the norm.  If you raise $250k at a $750k valuation the same goes.&quot;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Thanks a lot for all your insight!&lt;br&gt;John</description>

		<description>Every time I think I&#039;ve gotten a little smarter about funding, Mark Suster drops some more fund raising intelligence, in this case referring to a year old post.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Thanks Mark for making me feel stupid, at this rate I&#039;ll be a dangerous founder by years end.</description>

		<description>Mark,&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;What happens in the following scenario?&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Company X raises $500k from Angels based around a convertible debt structure, but then end up selling the company before a VC takes place? Likewise, if the plan is to never take VC money but rather take $500k in angel funds and exit in 18 months for $5M, is convertible debt even an option?&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Brandon</description>
