1. Can Funds Raised Cover Legal and Formation Costs Outside the 2% Management Fee?2. What's the Ideal Allocation Distribution for Pre-Seed Investments with 80% Failure, 10% 1x Return, and 10% 25x Return?

Two quick questions 1. Are we able to use funds raised to pay for lawyers fund formation costs etc as a separate cost not associated with the 2% management fee? 2. What is the right distribution for our allocation/fund economics slides i.e. 80% will fail 10% will return 1x and another 10% giving us a 25x (all preseed investments)?
