Should You Burn Your Savings To Grow Your SaaS?
How do you decide whether to go all-in on your SaaS or hedge your bets with side income?
"If you're not full-time on MetaMonster, no one is full-time on MetaMonster."
In this episode of Small Effort (Season 4, Episode 20), Sean and Andrew get into the career fork Andrew is actually standing at: stay all-in on MetaMonster or carve out two days a week for side income. They cover the 2-year growth model Andrew built with Claude, why part-time founders quietly stall, the box-rental business a Las Vegas regulation accidentally created, and why four months of burn is really a $20K bet on the business.
