As you said your son likes Lego and based on his skills, I believe there are a lot of good ideas to make some game or product that would satisfy Lego fans (I’m also a big fan of Lego). Here is one idea that maybe could be interesting and I would pay for it: if you remember the game ‘Gearhead garage’ (http://www.gearheadgarage.com/), I would be happy to get some famous Lego packs (like Batman 1989) which has some mistakes and then virtually fix these mistakes to finish the Lego set. Also, it could be a game where I’m just solving Lego sets virtually.
As you receive Social Security checks, and based on skills you have as a family, I believe you can create some amazing product. I would be happy to help with marketing. And I would be happy to see updates on this.
Really helped organize and structurize my thoughts on living, investing and managing stressful situations.
2nd book is ‘Direct Truth’ by Kapil Gupta. Really direct, bold and honest answers on big questions we ask ourselves. The book is short but you have to read every conversation few times, because we are programmed differently for some questions and we don’t really know the truth.
The framework includes: guide with 22 articles with theoretical knowledge, templates to apply the knowledge and a tool to execute this framework
The goal of the framework is to help you:
Create Product Strategy and Vision Have a clear idea of what you’re building and why.
Define Long Term Goals And Short Term Initiatives Define what your product needs to achieve and how to get there.
Build A Flexible Product Roadmap Determine and prioritize the most important features to build next.
Define And Manage Backlog Turn the vision into actionable work and prioritize what’s important.
Plan And Manage Sprints Define who, when and what needs to be done today to achieve the long-term goals.
I’d love to hear your feedback and how we can improve this resource.
I have this case: 11 months ago I sold my company and obligated to run the company as CEO for the next 12 months (which is ending with September 1st). Also, I invested in another SaaS product and team on the side, but that product is still in private Beta and has 5000+ Non-paid users (and patment gateway will be ready from October). Also, my current salary is pretty much great and I'm doing what I love to do, but still don't want to be an employee, but business owner.
Question: what would you advise me based on your experience with YC founders?
If Infinity solves flexibility and stay simple to use it can be a big shot.
