Ask HN: How much $ did you have when you started your first business?

  • I created niche social network, had €5K saved off and invested further €10K over 5 months from my paycheck.

    The idea was not bad, but programmers left me with unusable code that was basically antique (I didn't knew about it then) and since re-creating it would cost another big lump I decided to kill the project.

    If I would have at least twice the money and twice the time I could grow this to something really nice.
