Unless there are people here working for free, this is the opposite of "so true". People may not participate in every deal they fund, but they do earn a wage, build market share, create enterprise value, establish recurring cash flows, shape a brand, contribute to intrinsic self worth, etc., which can yield returns well beyond a 6 month 1.30+ rate factor. The venture and private equity funded folks didn't take OPM because they weren't confident enough in themselves have any skin in the game, but because investors were confident enough in management after a metric buttload of due diligence that they wanted some of their skin in someone else's game.
