The other startup is a credit card & employee benefits company.
The stress generated by this successful startup is killing me (literally). As I plan to have my first child next year, I want to quit working on that company and build something else, work from home and make money. My co-founder already knows that and we are preparing this transition.
Some points:
- The credit card company is not web-based at all
- My co-founder is a great salesman
- I have experience on trading and investment software (HFT too), that gaves us a lot of leverage - we have lower prices because we can invest for less time
- I could focus only in coding and math instead of code, web design, sell, etc.
When I was reject from YC W13 I started to reevaluate the idea, I came to the conclusion that user acquisition costs and not having a co-founder doomed the startup.
