The Bit Defender
“I have one big idea and limited savings. Play it safe or bet on it?”
Bet on it. Okay, wait. Not all of it. You cannot do the thing where you slide the whole pile in and then the pile is gone and you have to move and everyone at the new place hears about it. Keep months of rent locked up. That money is dead to you. Do not touch it.
Then take the smallest chunk you can stand and make the idea real enough that one stranger pays for it. If people laugh at it, fine. They laughed at sloppy steaks too. People can change. Ideas can change. You just cannot be broke while they do it.
