From reading stories of other entrepreneurs, I feel that the most balanced way to go is to validate the idea (obtain at least one paid customer, etc.) before leaving the job. Thanks for your reply!
- shafyy 2y agoYou're welcome. I've started a couple of companies. The first time I went all in and I was lucky that it worked out. The second time, I went all in again but it didn't work out. The third time I started on the side and had one paying customer, quit my day job but it was still too early. So my recommendation for my future self is: Only start switching over once you can pay your bills with your startup. This does not mean that you need to have the same high salary as before. Ideally, you can also start reducing your day job partially. Anyways, the situation is different for everybody, but this is just my learning for myself.
