    Every Saturday morning I send an email to my list. I talk about bootstrapping, making computer stuff, and earning a living on the internet.

    Yes: these are post-tax dollars. So actual salaries need to be higher than these numbers!

    It's these costs that are motivating a lot of parents to start their own businesses. If you're a young couple, with 1 child, trying to make ends meet, the bar is just so much higher: 👉 at least $100k/year for most areas (but more likely $150k/year, due to housing increases)

    When I first saw it, the "Family Income Calculator" by was eye opening for me: There's a massive financial jump to go from "no kids" to "kids" in America. For many entrepreneurs, *this* is our motivation: providing for our families.

    🤔 If tech bro founders are really “not doing it for the money” how come none of them want to pay more taxes?

    I know a bunch of incredible entrepreneurs whose original motivation was to “pay for diapers, day care, healthcare” for their kids. In my books, that makes them “the best founders.” 💯

    🎙 In 2018 I co-founded with Jon Buda. A big part of our motivation was to build a better product for podcasters. But from the beginning we were clear: we wanted the business to give *us* a better life. ✅ More freedom ✅ More calm ✅ And yes, more dough

    👋 Father of 4 here. 😰 As an employee, I struggled to make ends meet for years. 📆 I quit my job in 2014, and started my own company. 📈 Since then, I’ve consistently made more money as a founder than an employee. A big part of my entrepreneurial motivation *is* money.

    100% this. Flexible work gives families more margin.

    I've been asking for a "premium version of Twitter" for a long time, so I signed up for . I *really* wanted to like it, but... I'm going to cancel. Currently, it misses the mark for avid Twitter users. Review here:
