So I'm currently reading Ready, Fire, Aim by Michael Masterson and I thinking about it in terms of my own situation.
I'm currently an employed programmer in my 20s but I'm very interested in starting my own business since I don't see myself typing code in my 40s.
I do have some ideas I would like to try out in the field, without abandoning my job currently.
Since any real attempt to sell a service or a product here requires me to have a company of some sort I'm asking myself (and you 😀), do you think that opening a company and registering it for a range of possible fields I would like to try is "firing too fast" since there is a possibility that quite a bit of time can pass until something takes hold and I'm not effectively losing money anymore?
