Kudos. KUDOS TO YOU SIR. +1,000,000
You and 99 out of every 100 startups. Good luck.
just like every other startups that's about to fail... goodluck!
Helpful and prescient comment. Good luck to you.
If this post is asking for a helpful comment, it shouldn't be a confession post. You posted a confession and I just posted a reaction.
do you believe in the vision enough to keep pushing through, and do you think there will be tangible traction in the next few months to justify keeping on with it?
if not, there's always doing uber cab on the side. i've thought about doing that myself as i am getting dangerously close to the red.
Good. Debt is no reason not to hustle.
Also, be aware of the age and nature of your debts. I had low 5 figures of credit card default from 2006-2008 written off the books, so that's just GONE. Still though, 5 years later and I'm only pocketing 50k/yr pre-tax, from my company, so I'm still in the red....just gotta keep going.
If it's student loans, though, yeah. You're gonna stay on the hook for those.
