  1. 7:00 ya... Reddit is extremist. That's why it's hilarious that people are using Reddit data to train to act like normal humans. Reddit is notorious for purposely not answering your question

  2. You get users, then find a finance dude that can make up monetization, doesn't matter if it works or not, then try and figure it out after they give you 5-10 mil, and if you can't, come back, ask for more. Source? start up was my first job out of college. Cfo, we raised 8 million. I'd never filed taxes.... The founder world will never make sense to you, it is a completely different world. It's all about telling a story to profitability, not about having profitability. You most likely won't even be the person that makes the company profitable. So you don't even need to worry about that. They will most likely replace you with someone else at that time. It's pretty rare that the startup CEO also ends up running the company later down the road. You have a startup ceo, a profitability ceo, a long-term running ceo, and then a CEO that will run the company in its decline. Keep in mind, the kind of hours that you are going to work will destroy your body. It took me over a full year to recover after I did this. And there's a high probability chance that you will come away with nothing. Lol. Unless you're the CEO, but then, maybe, you got 200k a year... Which you paid for with your health.

  3. ​ @gen-X-trader one of my main issues with Reddit is that people there are notorious for being socially inept. It is extremely common that I read a thread where a person has asked a question and the whole group purposely decides to misinterpret the question and then not answer it even when the person clarifies. Example, a person wanted a short term bond investment. They just ruthlessly harassed the dude, saying he should just buy 1-2 year bonds, don't worry about t bills, it's basically the same return, blah blah blah. Sgov exists... It's literally exactly what he asked for. But instead, they condescendingly talk down. One dude on YouTube has a perfect series depicting how reddit people act. 40% of the time they're good, but a lot of the time, they're socially stupid, and it leads to bad answers.
