Of course this is true. Can someone think of a single $10B+ founded by someone who already had a kid? Now a single $100B+ company?
- sethammons 7y agoI don't follow start ups, but the one I am familiar with: SendGrid. One of the founders had several kids.
- georgewsinger 7y agoSendGrid is not a $10B+ valued company.
- sethammons 7y agoSure. But they got to over $1B. I'd imagine this particular co-founder has a net worth approaching $100MM. That sounds like success to me. And it was done with a family and multiple children.
- dumbw4tch 7y agoTrue. Have you seen a super hero with a wife and kids?
