      So excited to be opening up housing free until hired for Lambda School students. Next step: doing that cheaply at scale. then food + living stipends, while driving down the overall price. We’re going to eliminate every barrier to a high paying career one step at a time.

      With enough scale we can get the price of housing and possibly food to be *cheap*. A year from now you’ll be able to just “show up,” hustle, and have a high-paying career on the other side (or pay nothing at all).

      We won’t be done until any hard working person can just raise their hand, work hard, and be sheparded into a high paying job at no upfront cost. Every person in a less than ideal job because they can’t afford to transition is devastating economically. We can fix it for everyone.

          If you succeed and get really good at it, eventually the model will stop working as no more high paying jobs will be left?

          Wondering if you think this is only possible in the software industry? Could this be expanded to other well paid but semi vocational skills, accounting for example?

          - Accounting can be easily done as well.

          I like that you are treating housing like big tech treats adjacent markets, like Apple with Apple Music. Your incentive to getting it right is good for your customers, but it’s more profitable for you than for existing incumbents. Undercut with higher leverage.
