We're getting some advice that we should move our startup to San Francisco. Is that really necessary? Are there any recent noteworthy additions to the Bessemer Anti-Portfolio? What was the defining moment when you realized that your idea should be pursued, and what was that moment like for you? What is the craziest company that you've ever invested in, and how did it work out?
