Business guys make more money, only because they convince developers to take less than they are worth.  Your friend hired a developer who, by your account, was doing all the work, and then the business failed because your friend was too greedy.<p>Now he thinks he&#x27;s going to learn to be a developer and then not need any developers.  Good luck with that.<p>By the way &quot;getting it funded&quot; is not success.  Making it profitable is success.<p>PS- the word &quot;coders&quot; is like the n word.  Use it and we know you don&#x27;t respect us.
