If you need venture capital, maybe you need to spend more time in Silicon Valley or Boston. Location and luck: right place at the right time.

The words can be simple, like “I was meeting with a customer in Boston,” or “When my home was devastated by a tornado.” A memorable story needs to start with location specifics to make it real. Stories relay events, and these events have to happen somewhere. It’s even acceptable to make up a place with a “what if.”

I was in my early 20’s just barely out of school when four of us (peers) started Sombasa Media (aka BargainDog ) here in Boston beginning in 1998. My own personal story fits in with this narrative.
