> Recommended Video: Vinod Khosla @ The Stanford Graduate School of Business: “[Failure Does Not Matter – Success Matters.](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HZcXup7p5-8)” As is readily apparent from the video, Khosla has a very healthy ego, for the most part earned. There are various versions of this talk on the web, but this recent appearance at Stanford GSB is one of the better. The key portion is from the beginning to 35:30 (when the audience questions begin).
