Hey I am on Medial • 4m

I've been working on my startup for the past 2 years, and it's finally launch-ready! 🚀 Now, I'm considering taking a 7-8 month full-time sabbatical from my job to focus on it. But before making the leap, I’d love to hear your thoughts. My Situation: ✅ I get frequent job calls & believe I can easily find a new job if needed. ✅ I have 17 months of savings, no loans, and no financial dependents. ✅ I’m a 10X developer with 5 years of experience and currently make ₹30L/year (fully remote). ✅ I built the entire app solo—60K+ lines of clean, scalable code. ✅ My co-founders handle non-coding tasks, but their contribution is limited. ✅ Low operational costs (₹500/month for servers). ✅ There’s a real chance the startup could be valued at ₹1CR+, but it's pre-revenue. Would you take this risk in my position? What would you do? Looking forward to some realistic perspectives! 👀

Don’t quit , it rare to thrive for passion , delegate your work and continue adding few people would always be better than solo run . I am looking for side hustle , let’s have a talk if interested

I would ask you not to quit , instead assign or delegate things between your team , see how things are going - then evaluate and quit - it’s no just about you quitting your job for the startup, but assessing the situation / managing before going full hand on

The app simplifies going out and assists with everything involved until the user leaves the place or venue.

Is 4 years of experience still "Junior"? They're offering $60k-$65k. For those with 4+ years—what are you making? Is this a fair deal? Let's discuss!
