Andrew I was under the impression that you are already independently wealthy from your previous companies?
Why are you trying to make money from Mixergy?
If it is just a matter of keeping score, I challenge you to dream bigger.
The idea of paying for content is such a 20th century idea .. treating ideas in a similar fashion to physical property is such a 20th century idea. We are increasingly seeing people capitalize on the very significant differences between intellectual property and physical property to do new things.
If you have the luxury of not needing a cashflow from mixergy, why not challenge yourself to find a new way to make money off your work, that doesn't involve paywalls?
- rewind 17y agoI challenge you to offer valid alternatives instead of just challenging him to do it. And what does being wealthy have to do with anything? He has the same right to choose this business model as someone living on Kraft Dinner. "Why are you trying to make money from Mixergy?" Why not??? He's not running a charity. His business, his work, his content, his right to try to monetize it. You're calling his business model 20th century. Feel free to offer some 21st century alternatives. A lot of "I want your content and I want you to keep working on it, but I don't want to pay you for it, so find another way to make money" comments flowing in this thread without many good ideas to help him do it differently.
