This! Data! okay, so it's actually rare to get there .. and you'd need skills to get there .. wouldn't it be better to push harder for compounded results?

While $10K was a rough number, the same can be said about $20K .. it "should be", "relatively easier" to get to that solo .. the point is should you aim for that, or aim for much bigger .. which will mak you realisticall

Ah .. I thought about this, but I've found that most people who have hit "financial freedom" generally tend to lose momentum and lose drive .. fewer of those actually end up building something bigger .. just a personal observ

This resonates .. intentionally going small may not be the same effort per se .. but because it's harder to raise money or you raise at like 50% dilution .. you're tight for budget .. all this adds up to be the same amount of work

This resonates .. I built top selling Mobile Apps in 2013-2015 and very quickly after making it to the top copycats came from all over and revenue dwindled.

I think this is mistaken, there are ideas that obviously have the potential to be big .. and ones that have hidden potential to be big. Some people's entire jobs is to find a track them (whole VC industry). But yea, it's not easy.

If I understood correctly, you're saying starting small is best because things that may seem small may actually be a thread to something big .. even if it isn't obvious .. but the habit of starting things will be the truest test .

Agreed on the first point, but I'm once walked with a VC who told me the the owner of this restaurant (him pointing at a restaurant) works harder than Mark Zuckerberg .. I found to be likely true. So the concern here is that it may be

But if you're already there tho :), I don't know if retirement is the right path ... I would think it's aiming for something big ... I cannot imagine a life of relaxation .. especially if you're young and healthy .. also

Well if i want to know what the journey of a specific user is. How they progressed over time. Or an aggregate of that. pretty tedious to do that now in GA

Pretty cool. That's a challenge many developers face btw. Good luck with that. Moreover, this market is crowded, so your messaging and positioning will require a lot of marketing money to be effective.

Thanks! - Both libraries are not quite stand-alone a true stand-alone would be API-based (maybe include SDKs). My search comes up empty. - How'd you determine the $10 USD / month number?

This is kind of driving me crazy. I really cannot find anything out there and I cannot understand why. - I'm either not able to search well enough to find a tool - It's just not valuable enough for anyone to create - Schelp blind
