I care about the money. There are VCs walking around with literally a $350k line of credit in their wallet, a $300mm fund and maybe 60 bucks cash. <\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Solicit them.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
You know those signs that say “NO SOLICITATION”. They’re not meant for CS majors to abide by. <\/p>\n\n\n\n\n

The road to $600,000 #ENGR145<\/a> stops by $300. Going $0-600k goes by 300! #ZeroPt6<\/a>
#Theorem<\/a> #Of<\/a> #SumThings<\/a><\/div>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n

Let us backtrack. Have you heard of the Innovation Chasm!? It’s about a book called crossing the chasm. I am a bit of a doctoral thesis expert<\/div>\n

<\/span><\/div>\n
Well there is a much more insidious ‘chasm’. <\/span><\/div>\n

Chasm of Cash. <\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Seriously, there is a cash dead zone. Where rich people literally have zero idea how they got their first $600k.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
The cash chasm is a void. This void is lack of knowledge where few know how they got their first $600,000. And there is zero documentation. I’d explore and research this pattern more, but I’d rather just pop your revenue cherry https:\/\/www.duck9.com\/u<\/a><\/a> categorized\/your-revenue-cherry<\/span><\/div>\n

<\/span><\/div>\n
By pop your cherry I mean de-Virginize. Ask a VC for $300. Here are some very specific business subroutines other pre-entrepreneurs have followed <\/span><\/div>\n
– #ReverseVC<\/span><\/div>\n
– #puInternship1u<\/span><\/div>\n
– <\/span>#zeroPt6<\/a><\/font><\/div>\n
