Isn't it better to bow out before taking on more money and FT employees when he knew he didn't want to commit? When your heart isn't in something, there's no way to "get your head back on straight". He did the

seems like a shakedown to me. - jeremy left after a MONTH, never went through the YC interview with kyle - >>> jeremy never signed any agreement over equity breakdown, etc <<< - jeremy never inquired about equity when kyle

this looks cool - but one recommendation would be to move the gold ring further down the page or remove it altogether. in it's current position, it seems out of place. i would put the "1. build your itinerary ... etc" secti
