Many startups started with 1 (technical) person
Many startups started after normal work hours
Find a good job that pays the bills and lets you live a bit - after work, work on your ideas. If they turn out to have potential to make money - maybe you've saved enough from your day job to fund that, or someone with money to back you finds your idea interesting and does so (usually for a stake in the idea)
My "startup" is just 2 of us, and I'm the only technical person in the team. Been doing it for 4 years now, maintaining a day job the whole time. We're just now (last few months) finally making some money - not enough to leave the day job, but enough that the idea has been validated.
Work hard, focus, and if what you produce is good enough, maybe it'll be a win!
- rainboiboi 11y agoThanks for the advice but I personally finds it hard to get motivated unless I'm working in a team. Not sure if this is a hindering factor but certainly something I need to re-evaluate myself. Anyhow, thanks for your story - all the best to your startup. :)
