Hey guys,
Recently I started a startup around mid-Jan 2013 and I've been working on it everyday since then.
It's a peer-to-peer rental website
The website isn't finished yet, but after reading an article that some dude that has created a similar startup and him saying that "a supply focused, inventory-based platform for consumer goods like drills and vacuums is not a "scaleable startup," makes me want to give up, as he has already tried it out and failed.
He did say it can be a lifestyle business though, and that's something that I would be happy with, (considering i don't have a job, and parents telling me to get a job all the time) , but I really thought I could get really wealthy through this startup. I really thought that this startup could propel me to riches if I work on it really hard for 2-3 years.

Also, a question to fellow fastlaners:
-Would you rent your items out to strangers if they had to put down a deposit??
Please answer truthfully, not to be nice or anything.
