      He “Texted friends, families & communities I’m in.” I’m assuming his friends and family paid him a nuisance fee.

      So, he created a need (him to go away) and then sold a solution (him going away).

        Yeah problem-solution oriented business is great. But also as we see with the LinkedIn lunatics, there’s an obsession with being a business owner/entrepreneur that honestly hinders it. You’re better off working ordinary jobs until you see a problem you’re particularly suited to solve. Well unless you’re an American with an engineering degree, in that case you can just bid on military contracts they have rules and stuff to make it easy for small businesspeople to soak their hands in blood, and they’ll even usually give you plausible deniability. But yeah if that’s not an option and all you want is to be an entrepreneur, save yourself some hassle and don’t get a degree in cs or engineering or even business, get one in psychology/social work, medicine, or law or go to trade school. Way easier to make a living after founding a plumbing business than a software one

        Every time someone mentions X money over Y days on social media this is my immediate first thought. Second is that they’re just lying for clout.
