Get wrecked. The actual reason bro is not worried is in the right column:
> I am an EIR at Balderton Capital and principal of my own eponymous consulting business.
> I bring an uncommon perspective to enterprise software, having more than ten years’ experience in each of the CEO, CMO, and independent director roles in companies from zero to over $1B in revenues.
First, what the hell is an EIR.
Second, the fact that you are one at some Bertie-Wooster-ass venture capital firm means that you could probably retire tomorrow, if not necessarily in the manner to which you are accustomed
So yes, must be nice
EIR = Entrepreneur In Residence. It's a slightly odd position, and varies a little depending on the firm, but generally it means someone is employed by a VC firm for a period of time to work on developing their next idea and also help out around the VC firm sourcing deals and mentoring companies.
