Congrats. That's awesome. Particularly at that stage in your life - I bet it's hugely life changing. Would never do ANYTHING to discourage a young entrepreneur. I hope you go on to more, equally interesting, things. I got a smallish exit a few years ago now, similar sort of range, did much worse with it. Unfortunately we took our $$ mostly in stock and that was depressing - seeing other companies selling for much more while our tech languished ignored in our acquirer as it tanked and our stock became worthless :-/ I think that your example is great, I just disagree with the premise of the article that being broke is "a founder's greatest asset".
