Two weeks! Neglecting the rest of your startup for 2 weeks can easily kill 10% of its long-term potential. For $48k, so if you value your startup at more than $480k, you shouldn't do it.

(Taking a 2-week vacation doesn't do that, because you're fresh and energized afterwards, rather than beaten down by the grim bureaucracy).

Precisely why I wouldn't do it again. Right now, $48k was the difference between paying myself, or not. In the future, as we grow, that hopefully won't be the case.
