    I really like this part...

    "There are two things you don’t want to be when you’re trying to raise money as a tech company. You don’t want to be a single founder, because everyone knows startups are too much work for one person, and you don’t want to be non-technical, because everyone knows that a business guy with an idea has no inherent value.

    I was both. It didn’t matter. I was going to build a company."

    The determination is inspiring. It reminds of the quote by Thomas Edison "There's no substitute for hard work" which is fitting considering he made 10,000 light bulbs before he got it right.
