I was a non technical founder idealist. Then my friends told me I lacked the skills to be a business and a technical founder.

It was honest and useful. I dropped out of nursing school, went to business school and taught myself how to write code. I worked at some F500 companies for a few years (still there sadly).

But last week I launched my first product with a cofounder and it’s probably the best one on the market. My “technical founder” is much more technical than me but I’ve filled out a little of both gaps.

If you’re a non technical founder I can’t take you seriously. Unless you’re a walking pile of cash with a top hat, no sane technical founder would risk it.
