His story on https://www.failory.com/interview/friday https://www.failory.com/interview/friday suggests it's making 10-25k MRR. If he can run it on autopilot with just occasional bugfixes and support queries, he's still got a very nice "lifestyle business" that will probably keep yielding for a couple years.
- birken 5y agoI think your idea fails for at least a couple key reasons. First, a lot of customers will probably migrate to competitor if they know the product isn't in active development anymore, so the MRR will likely drop over time. Second, investors are not going to just give up their equity while the owner directly profits off their investment, there would have to be some type of buy-back, and the owner probably doesn't have that kind of money.
