Two weeks ago the renowned VC firm Sequoia Cap­i­tal gave their port­fo­lio CEOs a pre­sen­ta­tion on how star­tups should deal with the bad econ­omy. In the pre­sen­ta­tion, the “entre­pre­neurs behind the entre­pre­neurs” gave some good advice any startup should fol­low in good and bad times (for exam­ple, “spend every dol­lar as if it were your last”).

In reply, Sil­i­con Alley Insider pro­duced a pre­sen­ta­tion which, while a par­ody, also has some great advice hid­den within.

Of course, there are still many good rea­sons why you should start a startup in a bad econ­omy.
