Today is a tough one - @hmbradley is shuttering its consumer programs. Not something I ever thought I would write. We're not done yet though, Now we're planning to deliver our products through other banks rather than building the consumer brand ourselves.

I wonder how much more money @ycombinator may have made by including a ROFR to invest in future companies of founders at an early stage fixed valuation. My Batch (W12) alone now has founders of some of the best startups out there, can think of 2 in AI now and its been 11 years!
