Small Exits or Big Exits

I really like Will Price’s (CEO of WidgetBox  and not to be confused with WidgetBucks) post on his IRR multiplication table.   

There is a lot of debate around the changing role of venture capital – is it better to make small or bigger bets?  Everyone has an opinion on whether you need to shoot for base hits (smaller exit price, smaller money invested) versus home runs (bigger exit price, more money invested).  Whatever your religion is, this chart is a neat little reference to have on your wall.
