I agree, I was just wondering what was the primary motivation for the start up. I think making an impact and making money go hand in hand. I just feel like most people that do start ups either want to make an impact (their legacy) or make da bling. Positive impact is what I am understanding...

And I like the idea... I would suggest more emphasis on the ideas rather than the people. I get the whole invest in people part (being different from kickstarter), but the idea should be a bit more prevalent on the website.

| I'm about to write a piece about whether or not entrepreneurship actually pays, relative to taking the usual F1000 job.

That would be very helpful... I just started as an engineer at a big tech firm and would like to see how that compares to taking the start up gamble.

Did you start Upstart for money or to have more impact on the world? What end goal do you see for it?
