- livejamie 17y agoHey Brad, I'm just in survival mode at the moment, living on my parent's couch at the moment with negative money in my bank account. I need to sell some things to try to get back on my feet again - that's why I'm seeing if I can sell these domains.
- djb_hackernews 17y agoThat doesn't make sense. Did you just spend two months working on the startup full time? You should have made some headway. Put it on the back burner or something. I mean to sell the domains for $500? Is that all 2-3 months of 2 man full time work is worth?
- techiferous 17y ago"Is that all 2-3 months of 2 man full time work is worth?" I don't find it too useful to think this way. In the end, our time ain't worth jack. Solving customers' problems is where value comes from. If 4-6 man-months was put toward something that didn't solve anyone's problem, then it's worth $0.
- karjaluoto 17y agoWith all due respect Jamie, if you're in it, you're in it. My suggestion (for what it's worth) is that you put this behind you and find a way to make it happen. If you choose not to, you probably weren't going to make a go of it anyway. You got a raw deal, and that's clear to anyone. Now get back to work on your startup. This can be a roadblock or a speedbump; you choose.
- karjaluoto 17y agoI'm curious--why the downvote? Isn't this just the sort of test we've all faced at some point in our startup efforts?
