Asking for a founder: What's the worst reaction you've ever gotten from an investor?

byβ€’
Hey everyone! πŸ™ŒπŸΌ After listening to Airbnb CEO and Co-Founder Brian Chesky's story about the early struggles and outrageous demands from investors on the "This Week in Startups" podcast, it got me thinking...πŸ€” What was the most challenging experience I've had as a founder?πŸ€” For me, it was when an investor told me that no one would ever use AI assistants in their daily lives - this was just before ChatGPT came into existence, mind you! πŸ˜… Unfortunately, our entire business was built around this idea. What about you? What's the worst investor meeting horror story you've experienced? Let's hear it! πŸ’¬

when I was in 2nd year in college, I started Bookhunger.com Old/New Book Sell & Buy. Worst reaction is "Client, No Reaction πŸ˜”'
