What people THINK building a startup looks like:
Fly to SF. Network. Raise $10M. Hire geniuses. Fuel 100-hour weeks with pizza.
Apparently, “being your own boss” requires a board’s permission.
I’d take a boring business I own over a startup I need permission to run.
Would you rather own 100% of a $1M business or 1% of a $100M one?
