Nothing wrong with that at all. That's not who I'm referring to. A bunch of mid-tier hustlers decided to move to Austin all at once, assuming that they could just show up with a dumb idea with a cringe name and that they would be showered with VC money. If you are young, just graduated college, and are trying to build a solid network that will last you a lifetime, Austin is a great choice. As with anything long lasting, it's not done overnight. A lot of these guys were looking for get rich quick cons and that doesn't do well in Austin.
Austin is a wonderful town to eat, drink, fuck, work hard, and make true friends. Not so good for snakes.
