Best place to learn venture in terms of trial by fire. You have check writing ability that doesn’t really impact individuals at a large scale. Curious what company. Highly acquisitive places like Cisco have churned out VCs to top funds. Would heavily consider the opportunity.

I am about to hand in my notice at a job I am pretty secure in, to go to a job for a relatively new company (with a significant salary increase). Any tips for:

1. Getting over the nerves that are as a result of taking a risk (I am late 30's)
2. The guilt of leaving a role where I have an amazing working relationship with all my colleagues and my boss

Any tips would be appreciated as I am a mess of nerves!!
