After asking these four founder questions, which in total are sixteen words, you should have an excellent idea of what this person is building and why. These four founder questions give you a great starting point for answering the four investor questions every angel needs to ask themselves before investing. Remember, we want to figure out: Why has this founder chosen this business? How committed is this founder? What are this founder’s chances of succeeding in this business—and in life? What does winning look like in terms of revenue and my return? After thirty minutes and four questions, you’re going to have a strong sense of why the founder picked this business, why it might work right now, and, of course, what they are building. What you probably won’t know are the tactical details of how they plan on executing on their vision, including their go-to-market strategy, what kind of team they have, the competitive landscape, and the nuances of their business model. We are going to find out the answers to those questions in the second half of your meeting. We also don’t know the founder’s backstory. There’s another set of high-level, deeply personal questions I like to ask so I know what type of person I’m really dealing with.
The recipe for being fit but unhealthy includes an excess amount of high training intensity or training volume and/or excess consumption of processed/refined dietary carbohydrates.

Key Pittman, chairman of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, proposed that the British give up their home islands and retreat to Canada; that, he thought, would satisfy Hitler. Pittman was even agreeable to letting the Nazis control the Atlantic. Senator Ernest Lundeen of Minnesota recommended American seizure of all British and French possessions in the western hemisphere.
