Question: why did you make joining Tekedia Capital Syndicate very expensive?
Our response: we want only people who can afford to invest in startups to become our members. We do not want people to take money for Indomie, diapers and cereals, for fintechs, agtechs, etc. It is the right thing to do. Yes, protecting people who cannot take risks without affecting important things in life. We see those diapers, cereals, etc as more strategic than investing in companies, and if those important things are not guaranteed with investments, we ask you to focus on them. So, do not feel bad that we kept the barrier high.
Understand: I belong to We The People and that makes us think deeper on how to discourage people from taking risks they may not have the capacity to handle. Yes, when things stabilize, we’re here to welcome you to Tekedia Capital

We’re invested at a $1M valuation and in three years, a company is worth $300M. But that does not mean investments cannot disappear (we hope not in our community). I am responding again after a question during today’s Tekedia class. Young People, we are not against you; we just do not want people to take risks they cannot handle.
Take care of the basic things of life, and later come here at Tekedia Capital.
