Wayne Chang, 32
Tech entrepreneur
Business bona fides: My latest venture, Crashlytics, sold to Twitter about a year after it launched, valued at roughly $300 million at its IPO.
Paying it forward: I love to help others succeed. I do this through directly becoming involved in their projects, whether through mentoring, angel investing or just generally trying to be helpful—the success of others fuels my own happiness. I’ve been fortunate enough to be an angel investor or adviser in more than 40 startups.
Best feature: Probably my skin. Everyone says I look like I’m 22. It’s my Asian genes. I’ll probably look like this until I’m 60, and then I’ll suddenly shrink and look like I’m 3,000 years old.
Bad habit: I like to try new foods, and I just naturally assume other people do too. I’ve convinced people to try things (like uni) they otherwise wouldn’t—to disastrous results.
Physical trait that drives him crazy (in a good way): Great hair.
Ever worry that women are attracted to your money? Do women worry that guys are attracted to them because of their beauty? It doesn’t matter what the initial attraction is based on. The connection afterward is all that really counts. If the only connection is about how many private jet rides they can get, or diamonds or handbags, that’s really easy to filter out.
First-date agenda: Laugh. A lot. With the other person.
Great Catches
