Certainly was. I kind of fell into my startup without really intending to start a business (I gave a pitch and someone literally wrote out a check on the spot and said go get to work), but I wonder if more founders would be better waiting and building up more capital before starting? If you only need 18K and three months full time then this should be within the reach of almost all founders especially if you are building a business where profitability is within relatively easy reach.
