I really see the value in what you're starting to build @manikarthik. But what stops a persistent entrepreneur from sidestepping the system and contacting the VC community directly?

@mrfookes Nothing at all. If you can reach a top VC directly and get their advice, that's a great option.

Really clever. Since the asker's identity is supposed to be anonymous, have you thought about accepting Bitcoin?

So hey @rogerdickey I submitted the $20 forever ago and haven't heard anything. I've emailed you guys and Tweeted to no avail. What's the deal??

This may not jive with your vision, but it'd be cool to donate $x to see everyone else's questions/answers.

Thanks for checking this out today, Product Hunters! We created Advice.vc because of the huge supply/demand imbalance between a VC partner's time & the founders that want it. Founders get easy, instant, and anonymous access to top VC's to ask whatever they want without fear of embarrassment. VC's get a simple, fun way to donate $20 to charity for a few minutes of their time. 100% of proceeds go to charity. Hope you like it!

Great idea. Anything to open the playing field to those less fortunate in being connected is awesome.
