Out of the hundreds talks I've seen, this one stands to be at the very top. Down to earth, simple but very concise and with a clear motive - just start. It is in my hope to be a founder in Y Combinator in the years to come.

If Airbnb founders applied for YC online, they would not have been chosen. She admitted that YC didn’t believe in the idea. They were chosen because they knew Michael. Moral of the story: it’s who you know.

Their companies are worth $80 billion dollars, of which $69 billion came from 15 companies and the biggest one, Airbnb, they didnt believe in the concept but got into their ecosystem because a friend knew someone there. (7:00 - 11:00 mark). That fluke that they didnt like accounts for 44% of all their financial success. So basically, their success rate is about 1%. 15 financially wildly succesfull companies out of 1500 they invested in. Let that sink in for a minute or two. Only in America would that batting average be applauded and batter enshrined in at the front of Cooperstown.

Airbnb wouldnt exist today if it wasnt for Y C (CEO brian chesky said that). 2/3 of Y C startups at least paid themselves (Sam Altman said that), and succesful VC's considers themselfs succesful if 40% of their portfolio at least paid themselves. So Y C is above its market average, and more Y C founders says they wouldnt be succesful without Y C than other founders say they wouldnt be succesful without their VC. So yeah, Y C do a good job.
