How much did you spend on your startup before you got ramen profitable?
atkuebler: To those who have said and are going to say that the time they have spent isn't worth anything, it is. The time you spend on your start-up is time you could be spending working a paying job, be it a "real" job, a freelance job, a consulting job, etc. You time is not free!Now there is nothing wrong with this. You are investing your time into something you believe will be worth it in the end, but don't think you time has no value.Evaluating how much your time is worth is another question though.
