VCs will say a lot of things when they are not investing. 99% of what they say is nonsense when not investing, because the real factor is “will it make lots of money?” and/or “can it scale to hundreds of millions of people?”

Almost anything else doesn’t matter. Travel a lot? I guarantee you that if your company is running well and printing cash, VCs will not give a second thought to how much you travel.
