Building a One-Person SaaS App Offers a Profound Sense of Personal Achievement
4 years of one's life just for a 100k exit? Honestly that's the kind of thing that I got into software to escape.<p>Edit: I mean this literally. I spent three and a half years building a brick and mortar educational business that exceeded the success of the one in this article by some margin. I left that business to learn web development skills because of the slow painful growth in a shrinking offline market.<p>Perhaps, this makes me an unreasonable person but I truly did get into software to escape that. I want to either give far more to the world in terms of impact or earn enough to fund someone else who can.
