Steve Jobs didn't build the PC. Wozniak did. I am not trying to build a rocket in today's age. I am launching a website. And I know how to build it myself. I can hire a designer to help out with design. I can hire interns to work on marketing. Why is it such a taboo that I am a solo founder in the investor's world?
- pedalpete 14y agoI think maybe you are getting downvoted because you are mis-understanding the co-founder relationship. Steve Jobs didn't build the PC, but he knew how to get market it and get investors involved and run a business (or at least he was learning at the time, which gave Woz the opportunity to keep building and coding). The company is nothing without a product, so in that case you are correct, but often the co-founder relationship isn't everybody building, it's sharing of all the responsibilities necessary to run a business. Just to note, I'm a coder, so don't think I'm some MBA guy trying to justify my value.
