Heck it better be easier to get funding in Silicon Valley, the cost of living there is outrageous. If the company is hitting it on all cylinders, you’d think The Valley can find them no matter where the company is located. The argument to be in the Valley makes sense, but I worry about the cost of living there.
Wild Academy is my third business venture after two other successful ones. I've hired and managed teams of two dozen people. I have exponential growth in views, TH-cam subscribers, and mailing list signups. I even have direct sponsors. Looking in Universities to find people to invest in is curious. Several people know I've taken $1K and built a $1M annual revenue company in ten months. Well, here I am doing it again in broad daylight and nobody has even approached me about investing. It's pretty hilarious actually. It must be disqualified from being a startup because I have traffic and it's making money.

yeah any amount of money you throw at a startup seems low when you pay 3000$ in rent for a 1-bedroom appartment 🤣
I CANNOT watch an interview if I don't respect the interviewer
He hasn't cut his hair since
