The mentors I've found valuable aren't VCs, so I can't speak to that.
And the thing I've come to realize, is that most advice is bad, so you have to sort through 100 potential mentors to get 2-3 that actually add value. The type of value that you look back and think that was life changing.
Also, I've found that accelerator mentors are much more emotionally invested in being helpful for the long term.
