Why a startup founder needs a hot girlfriend

There's also the Larry David school of thought, where a successful guy with an ugly wife = man of integrity as they didn't "trade up" for the hot trophy blonde as soon as they became successful.

(All this is silly speculation anyway, anyone got any stats/studies to cite?)

"For all fairness, the title of this post isn't necessarily fair."

Great sentence, maybe the greatest sentence. How stupid is this guy? Why do VCs now feel the need to write pedantic, self-congratulatory semi-sciencey blog posts, even if they have the most tenuous grasp of the English language? Throw this garbage writing in the garbage can.
