eBook pricing advice aside (long story short: probably too low if that is your first product), I'd recommend everybody internalize the advice of "The current thing I am working on is not the last event in my career, and I should probably purposely work on this with the eventual goal on building upon it later."

This is true regardless of whether your main career goals are running a business, working for funded startups, or just getting a stable job at BigCo, by the way.

In my experience, this is particularly true when it comes to hiring. Whenever I'm interviewing (on either side of the table), a question in the forefront of my mind is "do I think I'll want to work with this person for the rest of my career?" I probably won't be at my current company for the rest of my career (which says nothing about my employer and a lot about me), but I do expect that I'll work with the members of the same group of people again and again, one way or another.
