[singlefounder]

That's the mindset I'm in -- if I can build a team and drive with my vision, have the mentors / team mates who are willing to challenge me, then I'd be fine as a single founder. Thanks for that.

I'd also imagine the "hit by a bus" issue still applies if you've got 2+ cofounders. If your tech lead goes missing and was the brains behind the algorithms / IT stack / whatever, then you're still likely screwed.

Thanks for the thoughts!
