I've never heard of Bill Payne but I do like this line:
Your business plan and executive summary must be non-confidential documents.
Thanks Matt, I'm stashing this.
The host site, Gust looks like some kind of competitor to AngelList... curious...
Bill Payne is a legendary angel investor who played a large role in much of the angel investment material and initial research done by the Kauffman Foundation. He's the co-founder of four legitimate angel groups, and does a ton of work promoting "best practices" in angel investing and angel group formation. He's also a tremendously nice and humble guy; kind of like the really smart, cool uncle we all wish we had.
Gust was formerly AngelSoft, and is backed by David S. Rose (who also serves as CEO, last time I checked). Rose and Jason Calacanis have notoriously gone around and around re: angel investing models.
