All top VC's, movie producers, media moguls, etc are Jewish. If you want the $$$ then become a Jew and change your last name to Solverstein or Goldsmith. Look at Google. Do you think they released Google Apps and Chrome to "make the web better and safer"?. Give me a fucking break. They are on a mission to crush Microsoft because, you guessed it, Bill Gates is not a jew. ALL technology companies that have been successful in the last decade are owned/invested by Jews.
