But let's move beyond that. Given the amount of time we've spent together, do you think I've offered what I've had to offer, or do you think I've held back? Have I honestly answered questions, given what I considered was good advice? Or have I taken the attitude that I have no obligation to you?
No, I will not build wheelchair ramps in my house for Internet randos to live with me. But I'd skip a session of poker and buy lunch if Internet randos wanted to ask about SFBA poker.
Part of it is just recognizing what I've received as charity. As I see it, I owe SSLHE about 3/4 of a 529 College Fund from the free advice I was given, and if I do end up starting my own company and getting angel funding, I will owe at least a fraction of my success to a 6/12 reg who was nice enough to treat me to lunch and answer all my questions about angel investing.
