Don't you expect to make more and more money as throughout your life as well?

- callalex 3y agoMy goal is to do less work for enough money. Letting yubico chug along without growth would accomplish that for me if I was the owner.
- selectodude 3y agoYubico is pretty well owned by VC firms that want their money back. By taking outside money, you're beholden to outside influence. Yubico can't buy out their investors, so they have to raise money some other way in order to do so. In this case, public markets.
- belter 3y agoOf course. But additional compensation, sometimes brings forced compromises in the form of increased risk, or tramping the core values that made you start in the first place.
- myself248 3y agoI expect to continue working as I continue making money, though. It's not like I put out a thing and expect it to support me forever with some magical recurring stream of milking whomever.
- bcrosby95 3y agoIn real terms, I make enough money. The only reason I want to make "more and more" is to cover inflation. If you asked me to choose between that while remaining customer focused, vs 3x what I make while screwing over my customers, the choice is easy. Other than providing for me and my family, I like creating things that make other people's lives easier over buying fancy cars and vacation homes.
