If a man saves $500/month and invests it at 8%, and his neighbor earns twice as much but spends every cent, who is richer in 30 years?
Answer: the saver, by roughly $745,000.
Bonus question: why does the neighbor drive the nicer car?
Answer: that's the $745,000.

Founder: "We're crushing it. $80k MRR."
Me: "Nice. What's your churn?"
Founder: "Our what?"
Me: "How many cancel each month?"
Founder: "Like… half?"
Me: "So you don't have a business. You have a bucket with a hole and a really good marketing team."
Founder: "..."

Founders are hard to reach unless you have the right data.
I’m giving away 250,000 Founder contacts.
Perfect for B2B SaaS, agencies, VCs, recruiters, and consultants.
Like, retweet, and comment “FOUNDERS” and I’ll DM you the database.
Must be following.

IN THE EVENT OF A FAILED LAUNCH
Your motivation will deploy automatically. It will not.
Locate the nearest exit (there isn't one, you signed up for this).
Secure your own ego before assisting others.
In a water landing, your runway becomes a flotation device.
Remain calm. Brace. Ship again.

i used to think charging more would scare clients away
raised my price 40% expecting silence
not one person blinked
the only person who thought i was too expensive was me. i was negotiating against myself for free

$0 to $45k/month in 9 months, here's the breakdown:
month 1-3: $0, built nothing, just talked to 60 people
month 4: $1,100, first ugly version
month 5-6: $4k, $6k
month 7: dropped to $3k (raised prices, panicked, lowered them, learned)
month 8: $19k (raised them again, held this time)
month 9: $45k the price was always the lever. took me 7 months to stop being scared of it

things that cost nothing:
being on time
calling back same day
saying you don't know
remembering their kid's name
doing what you said
everyone wants the hack
the hack is just not being annoying to work with

"what would you do with $10m"wrong question
the right one is what would you STOP doing, and if your answer is "my job," you don't want $10m, you want out, and out is way cheaper than $10m

cold truth
your idea isn't protected by an NDA
it's protected by the fact that nobody else wants to do the boring work it takes to build it
relax. nobody's stealing it. that's almost the problem

if AI takes every job, then nobody earns, then nobody buys the thing the AI makes, then the company selling it makes nothing, then it can't afford the AI
the doomer math eats itself before it finishes the sentence
i'm not scared of "no jobs." i'm scared of the 10 ugly years between here and whatever comes after

"billionaires don't want money, they want power" is mostly something people say to feel better about not being one
some of them just liked building things and got hooked on the game
not everything is a grand plan. sometimes it's just a guy who never learned how to stop

being "busy" answering emails at midnight
3 hours of sleep
skipping the wedding for work the grind

the fastest way to 10x your income isn't working 10x harder
it's finding people who already have money and a problem, instead of people who have a problem and no money
most of you are selling painkillers to people who can't afford the pharmacy

The richest guy at my gym:
drives a 2012 Camry
wears the same 3 shirts
eats rice and chicken
never mentions money
The loudest guy at my gym:
leased G-wagon
new fit every week
"bro I'm closing a deal"
$40k in credit card debt
real ones move different.

I've hired 34 people in my career
the best hire I ever made was a 19 year old with no degree who answered my job post with "I don't know if I'm qualified but I'll outwork anyone you've ever met"
he's now running a division
the worst hires all had perfect resumes
