50 bucks gets me further than a "business-guy" co-founder
- therealarmen 14y agoYou're tremendously undervaluing the contribution of a "business guy" (I'm a technical co-founder). A good business co-founder will raise money, get customers, close partnerships. None of which you can do for 50 bucks.
- imack 14y agoYou're absolutely right. My business co-founder also does QA, can help with some front-end coding, gets feedback from every single one of our users, and is a lightning-rod for time-bandits who want to take us to coffee.
- darrenhackin 14y agoimack, I love how you put it "time-bandits" - that's why i really need a diplomatic co-founder ;)
- michael_fine 14y agoOn a side note, the use of infographics in situations like this really annoy me. There is no data involved, no visual elements, only six things involved in a two column list. It sacrifices readability on small screens and scrapability by search engines.
- FnF 14y agoIt seems there is some data on the left
- crosh 14y agoThis sounds like it was put together by a guy with an inflated self-worth. I will wager that Bezos, Bloomberg, and Steve Jobs would all disagree. Engineers and "business guys" are compliments. If you know how build a product but lack the necessary sector expertise, cannot raise capital, or sell it you will be SOL. The same thing is true of the inverse. I'm sick of these shortsighted perspectives.
- jobowoo 14y agoThis is a completely worthless infographic. My guess is that OP, ammystew, is just a shill for Funders and Founders. The account was created on the same day as FnF.
- FnF 14y agoWhy you don't like Funders and Founders? Instead of criticizing and complaining, you could do your own startup or draw better infographics. Looking forward to seeing your infographics

- Radzell 14y agoIt seems like you would just need someone likable and not a business guy. Classes can't teach you how to be likable and get along with developer who sometime can be very opposed to people in suits who think the only way to succeed is to ware a suit.
