I get saddened every time I hear another startup moving to Silicon Valley from Australia. It is such a shame and I'm not looking forward to moving back there after living in Canada for a year.
Good line. Feel the same way in science, sometimes.
But may I ask why the hell every startup story has to sound like Indiana Jones going on an adventure.
Why do we keep idolizing stories of people taking huge risk for very little chances of success?
It feels like this is a story from the wild wild west. Because it is. I just hope he's not too late to dig gold.
EDIT: on second thoughts, I commend you for taking on an amazing journey and going full steam ahead. I moved to Australia when I was 21 all by myself, so I can certainly relate. I can't imagine doing it with kids, 12 years later. So bravo.
This is _dedication_ - not to some pipe dream, not to a pie-in-the-sky fantasy, but to get the job DONE and succeed.
Inspiring and great to read. Definitely cheering you all on :)
It's good to know there are other aussies out there with the same drive for motivation to succeed.
This line gives a great idea for a startup. Rent-A-Person for specific occasions or tasks. I mean rent a cook, cleaner, professional trainer, swimming instructor, basically anyone who's willing to show up in exchange for money.
If money is not flowing through you then the product is Angie's List.
