Before your startup is in an accelerator or has raised your seed round driving Uber to remain afloat is downright scrappy.

After you've raised your seed round, it raises huge red flags for me. Your seed round should enable you to not have to worry about money. That's pretty much the point. Uber should just be a distraction at that point, and one that should be squashed quickly. The fact that the "CEO" is putting all of his money into getting coffee and flying around says to me that this person is "playing house."

But then again, I don't know the exact circumstances, maybe he's figured out a way to turn every dollar spent on Adwords into two. I doubt it, but who knows.

Driving three to five hours a night a few nights a week isn't so bad as a relaxing hobby, nor does it need to be "squashed quickly."

Exactly.
