I am developing a finance tech, full stack app, solo. This would probably be fantastic, but the time/money commitment is
>Not working my 9-5 job that pays 2k/week
>Not obsessively working on my app after work 4hr/night 5 + 12hr2= 44 hours/week of not programming
Im sure its a great opportunity, but I am unsure if its the better decision. I already have a community that visits Efficiency Is Everything, I already can program, and I have a significant savings.
Business skills may be a real thing to learn, but its a risky 10 week proposal.
Anyone care to share thoughts on this decision? I would rather find out I'm wrong, than be wrong and make a bad decision.
- sandslash 8y agoWe totally understand that founders may have other commitments that are more important than their nascent company. That's one of the main reasons we started Startup School, and kept it completely remote. The program itself only has two requirements: that you are working on a startup (PT or FT) and that you're able to commit ~3 hours a week of to watch the lectures and attend office hours.
- mkirklions 8y agoThat isnt bad at all. I will re-read the article and consider it. Thanks for taking the time to respond!
