People building companies, not "startups"?

3 points by vorbby 14 years ago · 2 comments · 1 min read


Hey guys,

Are there any recent examples in the consumer tech space that have, or are, building themselves up with the goal of being a profitable company and remaining majority owned by the founders?

I'd really like to start a company and pay my bills with it and eventually make good money, not get rich quick.

It can be done, you just have to ignore a lot of the buzz since it wont apply to you.

You probably want to look for the term "bootstrapping". That should lead you to quite a bit of information that might help you.
