- andy_ppp 12y agoThe amount of money you have to grow your business is directly proportional to the cost overheads of running your app minus the revenue it generates. We are assuming that the larger your internet service is the more money you will make. Of course that has yet to be empirically proved.

Most sustainable business models show growing from some kind of smaller MVP to a larger full-featured application. Significant overhead costs to go from nothing to steady-state instantaneously would be enough to scare me.
