In 2018, I was working 10 hours a day on my SaaS, and it was making $3K/month. I remember my employee friends working 6 hours a day, with higher salaries, paid vacation, and holidays. A thought crossed my mind: Why do I even bother? It wasn’t until four years later, in 2022, that I realized my startup was an asset I could sell for ~3× its annual revenue. If your product makes $3K/month, congrats. You are sitting on $100,000.
