I saw a lot of "startup idea" content that either hands you a full business plan or is too abstract to act, where I think problems should be the first step. So I built a database of real problems instead.
Yeah, I actually live in Toronto, and this was one the design decisions I was thinking about before building this, it's just that more people relate to the US. And I agree with the reasons you listed, immigration imo can be controlled, like what I see here in Canada, they seem to control the flow based on economic state and demand year to year.
You are right, I think I mention that most experiences on the site are satirical but I don't mention it on the landing page to this experience, will add this today, will also add "not inflation adjusted' until I change the numbers to adjust for inflation.
I think it depends on your financial literacy, I know a lot of people who have no idea how to invest their money, you would be surprised how many people would be more comfortable with someone else managing their life savings for them
Appreciate the feedback, will definitely be making some updates based on the comments I got here. There is social pressure definitely when it comes to buying decisions, I think over the past 15 years, the world has gone crazy in terms of car sizes where most people wanna drive only SUVs
Agree, but if we take a wholistic approach, most things were more affordable. This is a satirical take not a literal financial comparison and I designed it to be that, but I think no can disagree that life in 80s and 90s was way more affordable.
No, as it's mainly supposed to be a humorous/satirical take similar to other experiences on the site. I didn't intend for it to be a finance piece originally but I know if inflation adjusted, whole experience will change.
Thanks for the feedback. The whole experience/site is mainly satirical/humorous. It's not inflation adjusted cause I didn't want it turn into a finance piece tbh, but you're definitely right, if inflation adjusted most cards need to be re-built to account for inflation and better judge what we're getting today vs what we used to get
I spent the last 2 months building ideagames.fun : satirical browser experiences about work, money, and modern life.
The Middle Class Museum is a guided tour of things that used to be affordable. Starter homes. Pensions. Blockbuster Friday. Each exhibit has a "Today:" line.
"Today: $450,000. You are renting Gary's basement." Built in vanilla HTML/CSS/JS — no frameworks, no backend, no database. Runs entirely in the browser.
Would love any feedback on what works and what doesn't.
Hi, my name is Syel and I built gotaprob.com. The purpose was to inspire other builders and entrepreneurs find ideas to build businesses around. It came from my experience of trying to find an idea to build business to find that most people are looking for the same thing.
