I feel like I've done this exact story before... more than once.

The problem is you don't ever make something NOBODY wants. Then it would be so easy to walk away.

You make something a few people want, and a lot of people SAY they want, but they don't want it enough to pay you so much that your company can succeed rapidly, so you waste a lot of time and die slowly.
