being a founder is actually extremely unglamorous under the hood and i think it’s hilarious that people crave the status…do you know what you are asking for? 😅

you are an underpaid janitor.

sure those r shitty parts. but ur still working on stuff you want.

there is an alternate world. you get paid to work on stuff others want.

not being able to pay yourself because otherwise you won’t make payroll sucks 

having to lay off your friends because you won’t make the next payroll sucks

having to sell your business for parts because of cash flow issues sucks

watching your investors make money while you get $0.00 sucks

a vc backed founder, idk you’re getting paid to build things you find interesting and hope the world finds interesting and the potential to be lucrative. what’s more glamorous? your lambo or working on stuff for other ppl?

it is glamorous in every way.

YMMV

Aftereffects of hearing only success stories and not the stories of grind and failure.

brb... starting Y Combinator but only for ex-janitors

Grass is always greener on the other side 🤷🏻‍♂️
