Ask HN: Many small projects or one large one?
In all other industries, the opinion is that diversification into many projects, rather than putting all your eggs in one basket, is the key to wealth generation.
What about for startup founders in the valley? Should we stay laser focused on just one thing, or spread ourselves across a handful of projects to potentially hedge a flop?
- codingdave 9y agoAs a founder, you don't have the time and energy to diversify. There is just too much to do. Founding a startup is an all or nothing game... all your energies to try to make something work. If you want to diversify, yes, that is a safer approach... but then you don't want to be a founder.
