In the 90s, they said building software was a fad.
In the 2000s, they said indians were going to do my job for $2/hr.
In the 2010s, they said no-code solutions would be the end of my career.
In the 2020s, they say AI will make it irrelevant.
Don't listen. Learn to code.

“Why behave like a founder, even if you aren't a founder of the company?
Because it's innate to you. Because you can't turn it off. Because it's just who you are and how you do things. Because someday you will be a founder. Because, really, you are a founder.
You might have a little bit less equity and a little bit more salary because you came later and you're taking less risk. But at the same time, when ten people pull together like founders with that mentality, they create something that is nonlinear, that is exponentially larger than what they could have done on their own.”

“The best investment you can make is in yourself. Use your money to buy time, increase your knowledge, and acquire tools that help you grow. Flexibility and mobility are crucial at a young age, so prioritize opportunities that enhance your skills and adaptability over locking yourself down with a house.
Consider high-potential investments wisely, but always keep learning and stay adaptable.”
