And because it's luck, it shouldn't even be thought about. In fact, the word 'luck' shouldn't be used. A more correct term would be 'probability'. There will be a certain number of people who will die by a

"Call me old-fashioned, but running a business that makes money is not the worst thing in the world." Are you kidding me? This is the whole point. Regardless of the funding, the goal is for a business to be self-sustaining. A comp

Jeez, everyone is talking incubators, YC, angels, etc. People don't realise that this type of money is the most expensive you will EVER get. And trying to get this funding will consume your business for the better part of a year, at le

You can't function at work, can't sleep, can't eat, drink too much, and you ask if it is reasonable to quit? You know the answer.

I don't know what this article was trying to convey. Valuations are a subjective airy-fairy number and, in reality, based on the strategic need of a buying entity. For example, when I was in the process of selling my last business I ha

Mate, you are too caught-up in the big picture. The devil is in the details. You seem to be consumed about the big picture yet may be unwilling to do the necessary daily work to make it happen. Making something happen is always a case of ro
