Quotes
“Being able to travel the world, for a long time I’ve defined that as having a rich life. Growing up, there were only millionaires that could travel the world that could be all over the place and in all of these islands and that didn’t have to be in an office on a Tuesday.”
“It took us 38 or 39 months, or over 3 years to get to 10,000 dollars in monthly recurring revenue. I think we were making 7 or 8 thousand dollars in monthly recurring revenue when I actually turned it into a full time thing.”
“It’s easy to design a page and to make it look pretty. But to understand what the end user is trying to achieve and the little details that remove clicks for the actual customers, thats the kind of thing that can be a lot more difficult. Once you have those mockups, it’s pretty easy to get software actually created.”
—Amar Ghose
