This guy is amazing. Once he started to drop numbers I was speechless. He spoke about several ways to fund your business, stating which ways were better and which ways were worse. He also spoke about how to carry yourself around such people such as angel investors. He stated NEVER to mention their age since that will definitely shut down any chances you have to get funding from them. It's really interesting how much personal skills and how you present something can really affect your business. I figured if it's an amazing idea, people will fund/help with it regardless of the person. It makes sense that you have to be likable though, since you could be working with these people.
One thing that surprised me about John Dimmer was that he played an MMORPG called Silkroad Online. He mentioned this outside of the presentation during the break. I would have never imagined someone with that high amount of wealth that can be moved around would play free online games. That game is pretty old too, so its I found that really weird but cool about him.
