Those Who Have Moved from IB to VC -- Good Move for You?

Since VC seems so different than IB (task-wise, almost no modeling, much more interaction with founders and getting to know them and the story behind their company/industry... comp-wise, much lower than IB to start out), curious as to whether people who have made the move from IB to VC are glad that they did it, and why.

Thanks.
