Why should you start-up?

Sam Altman – How to Start a Startup Lecture 1. Welcome Welcome to CS183B.

I am Sam Altman, I'm the President of Y Combinator. You Have to Jump First. Startups are founded by people that make the leap before anyone else.

If you don’t leap first, you don’t stand a chance of winning. Jump. It’s up to you. No one else can jump for you or before you. If you’re waiting for some form of validation from existing co-workers, family or even worse, investors, you’ll be waiting a long time. "I've got an idea for an app"
