in Why Not To Do A Startup on mattmaroon.com
This post seemed to be mostly about money. Is that the only reason do startups? I kinda thought it was to create something cool, to have an impact on the planet and, maybe, leave it a little better off then it was before you were here.
If you're in it purely for the money, well, sucks to be you. The money is good, but it' s not the reason, is it? Really? The reason is no way could you do what you're doing at Boeing, IBM or CitiBank. You want to create something right? You want to get it into the hands of millions and create a little joy and mirth out there in the world.
Maybe this is a Silly-con Valley thing. Good thing there are places not like this where doing a startup is actually fun (Portland, Austin, Boulder, etc.)
