Six months straight—turned down every VC pitch, every fundraising call. Built this thing from scratch, zero outside capital. Finally logged into my bank account today. That moment when you realize bootstrapping wasn't just a flex, it was survival mode. Wild ride.

Really, it takes a tough mindset to go six months without funding... But honestly, when you finally make money through bootstrapping, that moment is truly amazing—it feels like the whole world has changed.

Did this guy really make it all on his own? Still surviving after six months without any funding—he must be incredibly resilient. I’m honestly impressed.

This guy is really tough—he didn’t make a single fundraising call for half a year and managed to survive on his own... But I still want to ask, what can you actually do with the little money left in the account?

I'm not really that interested in hearing fundraising stories, but this one is actually pretty interesting.
