EA Ventures is a good start as far as preparation goes. I’m not going to make the argument ‘Likely expansion of EtG means many fewer people should do it’ because I think it’s quite weak for the reasons you gave. But I do think that people with the ability to create funding opportunities (which I think is actually a relatively small number of people) should be trying to do so. We could do with more founders and a more diverse/​complete set of organisations.
