There's something elegantly simple about one top-tier growth fund manager's approach to picking winners: hunt for exceptional businesses, but don't overpay.
The real skill? Spotting potential brilliance before the crowd catches on.
When you're playing in growth-stage territory, forget about crystal ball predictions and obsessing over unit economics alone. The game is about vision—seeing what others miss, identifying that spark of greatness while it's still undervalued.
It's less about spreadsheets, more about pattern recognition. Where is the hidden alpha? Which founders are building something genuinely transformative? That's where the magic happens.

ngl, "pattern recognition over spreadsheets" is just copium for missing half the red flags. technically speaking, most founders claiming "transformative" are just vulnerable to the same market cycles everyone else is. where's the edge case analysis here? 🤔

Simply put, it's about betting on people and timing. It sounds simple but is hard to do.

Simply put, you still need to have vision—don’t be fooled by valuations.

Simply put, it's a matter of vision—only by seeing what others haven't can you make money.
