What is Carry in Venture Capital? How do VC's Get Paid?

What is "carry" in venture capital? And, how do venture capitalists get paid?
Venture Capitalists, also known as "VC fund managers" and/or "Principals" receive "carry" or "carried interest" as their primary source of payment outside of management fees.
The "carry" is the portion of the profits that VC's receive after the original principal is paid back to the Limited Partners, which can be anywhere from 15=30% of the profits from the returns.

Friendly constructive feedback for the host, you interrupt the speaker too often and derail what they were talking about.

One doesn't take 20 million dollar in management fee but 2 mil which is the ideal 2 percent. What is this guy smoking?
