I made $15K/month at 13. Built a YC startup at 20. Still looking for my person

4•HNMaxHN•1h ago
When I was 13, I created a fully modded Minecraft server doing over $10K a month.. Not birthday money, actual revenue, actual operations, actual problems to solve every day. I built the whole best French MC server alone because I was completely obsessed. It was a fcking amazing experience

At 20, I co-founded a startup, we had 40 employees, and we went through Y Combinator. It was real scale, real chaos, and it taught me a lot in two years..

Around 23, I started another one. Different industry, different vibe, but genuinely one of the best adventures I’ve had. The thing is, in parallel I never stopped freelancing. I’m French, I like my freedom, and high-ticket freelance kept me financially untouchable while I was building a startup. That balance kept me sane. That’s basically been my life since I was a kid. Build things, fund it myself, answer to no one. Here’s what I’ve realized though: I can build almost anything… But I’ve always done it alone, not because I’m some lone wolf type, but because I’m wired in a way that makes it hard to find the right person, but because I scan people before I trust them, I move fast and I genuinely can’t stand people who talk more than they ship.. I’m looking for someone crazy enough to build things with me. Not someone like me, but more someone who has a scar I don’t have yet, someone who sees what I miss, someone who reads this and just gets it, not because you’ve had the same path, but because you recognize the way of thinking..

I’m based in the south of France, and it doesn’t matter where you are. If that’s you, please reach out :)
