"I’m writing this because there’s a lot of widely read blogs from people who have had amazing success, but very few from people like myself, who are starting from the bottom."
$200K a year? That's the new definition of "starting from the bottom?"
- jitnut 13y agoGuess he lost all of it and now back to zero.
- k-mcgrady 13y agoI read that as his yearly salary not savings he'd lost.
- jonnathanson 13y agoI interpreted him to mean that he was making $200k a year, then recently gave it up to start his company (at which he is now making $0, thus, "the bottom"). It's certainly not "the bottom" if he has any appreciable amount of savings -- or if he's kept in the good graces of his now-former VC colleagues, whom he can call upon when the time comes to raise a round. But I don't think he meant to suggest that a $200k salary is "the bottom."
