Episode notes
Start Small To Build Credibility
- Start by finding deals, raising capital, or doing the grunt work and trade effort for equity or experience.
- Join transactions as a small participant to build credibility and then leverage that ownership into larger roles.
Syndication Pays Off Slowly
- GP economics are long-term and often small per-deal, so syndication builds wealth slowly through many assets.
- Big AUM numbers can mislead; actual GP equity depends on leverage, splits, and time to scale.
Cap Investor Returns Before GP Upside
- Structure waterfalls with caps so investors hit a promised return first, then give GPs upside after that cap.
- Use splits and tiers to align incentives and preserve investor protections while allowing GP upside later.
