Something Ventured Page #9

Synopsis: Apple. Intel. Genentech. Atari. Google. Cisco. Stratospheric successes with high stakes all around. Behind some of the world's most revolutionary companies are a handful of men who (through timing, foresight, a keen ability to size up other people, and a lot of luck) saw opportunity where others did not: these are the original venture capitalists. All were backing and building companies before the term 'venture capital' had been coined: companies that led to the birth of biotechnology and the spectacular growth in microprocessors, personal computers and the web. SOMETHING VENTURED uncovers the ups and downs of the building of some of the greatest companies of the twentieth century, and the hidden dramas behind some of the most famous names in business.

It clearly got

the first man to the moon.

It clearly got, you know,

everything from we're country code

1 in the telephone system to,

you know, the Internet.

I think you can't ignore

the role of venture capital.

You know, can you imagine,

a guy going in and talking to a banker,

and he says, you know, "Look,

I want to start delivering mail by jets."

We go into Kleiner Perkins,

we say we want to make insulin in bacteria,

and he goes, "Okay!"

Great things don't really

come out of the status quo.

They come out of people with vision

and drive to prove the difference.

This underlying technology

was there,

and there was nowhere

for it to go, until, you know,

the venture capital

is up here, saying,

"We've got some money.

Let's take a chance."

We need guys with new ideas

about how to do things.

All these ideas-

You gotta get to the frontier.

Do something. Build a company.

The entrepreneurial spirit.

The entrepreneurial spirit.

Entrepreneurship.

Making the world go round.

Hard-working, visionary.

Change the way people work,

educate their kids.

And you can do it.

The best things in life are free

But you can give them

to the birds and bees

I want money

That's what I want

That's what I want

That's what I want

That's what I want

That's what I want

That's what I want

That's what I want

Your love gives me such a thrill?

But your love

won't pay my bills

I want money

That's what I want

That's what I want

That's what I want

That's what I want

That's what I want

That's what I want

That's what I want

Money don't get everything,

it's true

What it don't get, I can't use

I want money

That's what I want

That's what I want

That's what I want

That's what I want

That's what I want

That's what I want

That's what I want

That's what I want I

want money I want lots of money

In fact, I want so much money

That's what I want

Give me your money?

That's what I want

Just give me money

That's what I want

That's what I want
