I know this decision may not be popular around here, but I think the quality of advice that I’ll get is good, so I’m going to ask for it. I’m a very talented programmer, started coding in 5th grade, and worked at top research teams at Facebook + Google immediately out of college. However, a combination of bad projects + not so great management made take the plunge to pursue my dream – startups. After around 3 years of trying different ideas (went through maybe 5+ different co-founding teams, applied to YC in the past, etc.) + last year finally getting traction on a project, I’m starting to feel not so happy with my current route. I’ve done consulting in between here or there to pay the bills, but now my savings is literally starting to reach empty and I just hit 27 years old with no girlfriend/dating life. I have some friends that somehow are just able to keep pushing through and not giving up, but I feel like that’s not me at this moment. Any suggestions/thoughts?
