The Job of a Philanthrocapitalist:
Take concepts and techniques from venture capital finance and high technology business management and apply them to achieving philanthropic goals.

I will be spending the next 40+ years of my work life as an active social
entrepreneur and philanthrocapitalist.
I’m planning to tackle initiatives in economic and social/emotional
security:
Economic dev Family traumaUnemployment Child
abusePoverty Foster
childrenHomelessness Orphans Mental illness

the bad news:
it’s definitely not going to be easy...
![Page 8: Social Entrepreneurship And Philanthrocapitalism](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022081502/555b64a3d8b42a66338b4ef4/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Every world-changing initiative beings You vs. The World. These are not great odds: ranging from 1 to 1 combat (50%), up to 6 billion to 1
(a % too small to write!)
In a parking lot fight, the most likely outcome is
that you’ll get your ass kicked!
The Odds Are Stacked
![Page 9: Social Entrepreneurship And Philanthrocapitalism](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022081502/555b64a3d8b42a66338b4ef4/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
No one pays you to change the world. You have
to be willing to work for free, in a position to work for free, and/or, willing to forgo benefits of getting paid: rent, food, car, phone,
movies, drinks out, vacations, financial flexibility, security— at least while you’re getting
started.
The (Financial) Pay Sucks
![Page 10: Social Entrepreneurship And Philanthrocapitalism](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022081502/555b64a3d8b42a66338b4ef4/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
We get attached to the way things are. Change
disrupts our stability for an unknown period of time, which we dislike very much-- even if it improves our situation long term. And
because we don’t like being uncomfortable, we don’t always like people who shake things up.
People Don’t Always Like You
![Page 11: Social Entrepreneurship And Philanthrocapitalism](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022081502/555b64a3d8b42a66338b4ef4/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Once shaken up, we never return to our prior
state. Trading what we know we like, for something we're not sure we'll like, bringsthe threat of loss if things blow up. The
lowest common demonimator response is, why
risk blowing things up?
Change Is Risky
![Page 12: Social Entrepreneurship And Philanthrocapitalism](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022081502/555b64a3d8b42a66338b4ef4/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
the dark side of change:
instabilitydissonance & ambiguity
awareness of painful realitiesanxiety and uncertainty
failure & blameloss & grief
the end

so if changing the world is so risky and painful,
why bother?
![Page 14: Social Entrepreneurship And Philanthrocapitalism](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022081502/555b64a3d8b42a66338b4ef4/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Remember those problems mentioned earlier?
Economic dev Family traumaUnemployment Child
abusePoverty Foster
childrenHomelessness OrphansMental illness
…they’re real, and they’re very compelling.
![Page 15: Social Entrepreneurship And Philanthrocapitalism](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022081502/555b64a3d8b42a66338b4ef4/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
through social initiatives, we can address and solve these problems, on a case-by-case
basis.
An orphan finding a family.
An unemployed person finding a meaningful job.
An abuse victim becoming at peace.

though risky, social change allows us to use current
resources to create new solutions,
that end old problems

It is possible to change the world, and it’s a job worth
doing.
