Yes, money maters.
Rich kids can conjure tens to hundreds of thousands of dollars from "friends and family" in a mater of days. Hours even, if they're really connected.
They can then pump all that money straight into advertisement, barely even need a working demo - just something that looks like a product. They can do this many times over.
If you're gonna bootstrap something with $0, then you need to win the algorithmic lottery, simple as that. And even if you have some life savings laying around, you only have one go at burning those - though most working class folks in their early 20s rarely have the substantial funds needed to promote a product.
- fl_ciq 4y agoThe pyramid of loserdom goes all the way down, unless you're Elon Musk there is someone richer, and there's always someone poorer. Winners figure out how to make it with what they have. Losers always blame lack of resources, look at people who win the lottery, most return to the same standard of living within a few years. Almost anyone can afford $5 a day in ads to test market.
- ElfinTrousers 4y agoThis is the "temporarily embarrassed millionaire" myth that the whole illusion is based on. Thanks for nothing for propagating it one more time.
- oreally 4y agowould you be able to get meaningful tests for $5 though? i think most ad providers need more as a minimum
