    A job isn't something you "get"...

    GOLD! 
    Its a good thing too... But we all have to be vigilant that in the transition, we don't play mind games. That said, Enaeka, man I too find it hard to find reasons to employ people. It really does bother me. I don't have the answers, I just avoid employing people for now (great solution...

    GOLD! 
    Easier said than done though and tbh, its an IDEAL not an exact reality. Jobs don't exist by giving, cuz if they did, due to all the stingy a##es that want to do it all themselves, compete, be the boss, all you end up with is saturation. Jobs, for the masses exist because crucial and...

    What does 100k mean to you?

    MINDSET 
    I have a sneaking suspicion its all fairly over exageratted and money is used as an excuse to vent frustration at life onto something, and it turns into a viscious circle. I think that, there may just be things that are more important than money, and that money doesn't always buy freedom, but...

    Generationalism Racism Yadda yadda yadda My pop always used to say "you'll understand when you get older" But hell was he wrong, I just understood how deluded he was and how he used that cr#p as a crutch Thing is, we like to tell people they suck for this reason or that reason because its...

    Which type of CTO best worked for you?

    EXECUTION 
    Hire slow, fire fast. Hire really slow, fire very rarely. Hire really slow, and use your talent across your businesses like branson and you can create a loyal workforce with great job security that "get" and "cherish" the company culture. I think the first port of call for hiring anyone is WALK...

    HOT! 
    Hmmm I'll take a look, he isn't usually rough I see... That response is not nice. And there is a lot of that here at the introduction level(it could ideally be done better, but practically speaking thats not what the forum is per se, which I think fools some people into getting roasted). I...

    Attracting top talent and retention

    EXECUTION 
    The underlying premise here is that you can create a startup with employees at full salary. You can't. Truly. Until your cashflow can support it, or make the leap to support it. Its like hitting a moving target from space with an arrow when you've never fired an arrow before. I mean. If you...

    1) CTO I'd not start up with a CTO initially, unless you really need it. Don't build the company like legos, with figure heads etc, you want to grind, test the water (low commitment first) and then once you KNOW what you want and exactly what payoffs you get, you get the guy and test their...

    Would be nice if it was all business, but biz is weird... You have to "keep busy" to stop losing your mind Not everyone does that in the best way (is there a best way out there so far?) People can jump way too quickly here #itsatouchysubject :p If you are looking for great wisdom I have only...

    Plan for the beef

    EXECUTION 
    Nah, its just a bit abstract rather than literal, its pretty hard to confirm exactly what I mean when I do that. (I wanted to leave it a little open to interpretation, just for the fun factor, cuz I don't take it too seriously) The extra cash I win on a month by grinding, I call beef Beef =...

    Plan for the beef

    EXECUTION 
    I've learnt this lesson a dozen times over, and basically what it comes down to, is that "independance" has a cost, you need "beef" to fight for that extra edge that will MAKE your future. - Someone usurps control (you need beef for the inbetween period) - You are bootstrapping? (you need beef...

    It gave me a boost. I mean I get it already, but I liked the way you put it (very eloquent) Brilliant Thats how it works, you see the connections underlying bs, and poof! Glad you produced this concept. THIS was what gave me a boost. I'm learning code right now, and I guess I consume 60%...

    It looks pretty tough I thought you might say that xD But its interesting to note that the challenge forces you to think of new ways to design. Maybe a way to say it is, you'd rather not have to compensate as much as you do because it distracts your creativity sometimes and limits how much...
