Not really I don't think I'm smart enough, or maybe I am smart for some things but I haven't ever had any cool ideas that I could turn into some entrepreneurial venture.
...What's stopping you?

No, I failed fucking grade school and didn't even get accepted into high school. 9th grade is as far as my education went. If I didn't live in a tutorial level country with permabux for retards like me I would have died on the streets somewhere.

Every good idea is burnt out. The days of easily creating a place people want to go is dead. People are rejecting social media for small discord servers with their friends. It's hard to have an edge when everything is getting easier and the edge is dull

1. I wasn't able to steal someone else's idea and claim it was mine.
2. I wasn't born into a blood diamond family there I was given money to start a business.
3. I am not surrounded by engineers and scientists whose idea I can claim are mine and con shareholders into giving me their money.
Sooo.... I dunno....

If you read about their lives before they start their company you will find that there is nothing clever about how they achieved it.
such people never do it alone, and in fact they do nothing but steal the work from their partners, this is true for every one of them including Bill Gates, Steve Jobs and Elon Musk its always the same type of people.

Those were all middle class pampered kids who got trampolined off their family connections and money
They didn't have to work their ass to have a place to live in and some food on the table. Their families bought them good PCs, funded their expensive education, they were put in an environment with connections

I come from such environment and still ended up on 4ch. It ain't guarantee for success but is prerequisite.

Well, for starters? I'm not a thief.
Im also not really an intellectual thief either. As in, I'm not going to take credit for things like group projects, steak a website, or do anything manipulative to get ahead.
My moral compass prevents me from becoming a dirt bag.

Nope. Go solve a millennium problem for starters. There's infinite products/ideas that are yet to be made. And even for existing problems: I'm sure Elon will make you CTO of Tesla if you actually solve self driving as well.

Superior morality and ethics.
Screwing over fellow human beings to make a buck under the guise of progress will only drive humanity backwards.

the reason question is what is stopping any of us from just starting some fake online AI company selling a product that doesn't exist but sounds interesting and then gets interest from some extremely rich company or investor because "AI". then in a couple of months or year, the sham is up and the investor says "oh that didn't work, oh well" and you walk away with millions in your pocket

Aside from getting money from his rich family, he might be legit, idk

Mostly, the fact that real billion dollar ideas these days require highly specialized knowledge and a ton of startup capital to implement (the knowledge is the bigger issue, typically).
For example, if you were to come up with a good implementation for a way to control smart AR glasses, the faggot in your pic would personally fly out to wherever you are to hand you gorillion dollars in cash for your IP.

I could revolutionize robotics but I choose not to because I know eventually someone is going to use my design to kill somebody and I’ll have blood on my hands. Even if I control the patents the government can just use a military use patent clause, steal my hard work, and hand it over to LockheedMartin. Foreign nations wouldn’t even bother with that and just say it’s their idea. Truly the only morally good thing is to never keep a record, never mention it, and let all knowledge of it die with me.

I lack ivy league credentials.
Ever notice that these niggers all went to ivies or elite technical schools?
Only those faggots get free money and the inside push to make them part of that elite inner circle.
Normies like is are not welcome.

protip: facebook is just a rebrand of the cia (darpa) project "lifelog" (it's even got a wikipedia page). zuckerberg is the mossad-appointed kike commissar to keep the goys working there in line.

For me, it's unironically this. I even have the idea. It would be a phone app that would let you leave comments on locations, so you could walk around somewhere and see what people have written about the place. "There's a great view of the city from here", "This place does great burgers", etc. No need for accounts or anything; just write helpful comments for future people who are going where you're going. It would be a billion-dollar idea.
However, it would take about two days before people started writing "Go in here and ask for Battletoads LMAO" and "Tell the waitress who works here she is a bitch". It would become the most evil app ever devised, and it would be banned within a year. So I don't want to create it.
>>108046193
There's still room for ideas, but everybody understands now that it's not enough to have an idea; you need funding from shady private-equity men in small hats. If you have a good idea, Amazon or Google can just copy it and they're too powerful for anyone to do anything about it. Not a single idea has actually genuinely come from nothing this century.

>>108045930
If you build something good and useful then a bigger company will pretend it is interested in funding you only to learn more about your product so that they can then build their own version and snub you.
Been there. Done that.
Nobody gets bought or funded without a backroom deal already agreed, signed, and kept secret so that the myth of the self-bootstrapping startup endures to lure in suckers with ideas ready for the stealing.
I know this firsthand.

My parents are literally brother and sister but with different dads (same mom) which is legal in my cunt.
I have some math mental retardation called Dyscalculia which sounds like a shitty vampire name.
I also crashed my snowmobile as a kid and literally cracked my head (skull fracture, swollen brain, four days in coma).
I scored 78 on an official IQ test.
I'm a retard through and through.

I'm not cut out to work hard for large sums of money. I like the idea of luxury, but I don't like the idea of hard work. I like easy work where not much is asked of me. I was supposed to be an aristocratic son who lounges and sleeps with local women. Instead I'm a chud who has no money and must wage. The dichotomy is crazy

That's not how the world works. Every industry ends up maturing and converging around the set of products that are actually viable and offer the best returns and finding new niches once that happens is infinitely more difficult than finding them at the start. Plus it is also harder to get investment for new stuff now that investors are used to the established businesses and are more skeptical about new stuff.
There's a reason every startup has to do with AI now. It is the newer field with more room for new ideas and where investors still throw money at every retarded idea cause they don't know what makes sense and what doesn't anymore.

have you seen the current state of SaaS? the meta is clone other successful projects and scalp their users. some dude goes on starter story with their shitty AI fitness routine planner and next month theres 50 of the same vibe coded thing flooding the market

It's unironically my goal and my desire. I disagree with the other anons that say everything's been done already. The tools may already be there, we can exchange information, geolocate, collect data, that's all we need in terms of tech. The issue most people have today is with how the environment onilne has been treating them, making them anxious, paranoid, insecure, vicious in a number of ways. It's only like so because we have compromised these environments for money. The good news within this hellscape is that this means there is huge margin for improvement. I'm smart enough, but beyond that, sensible and brave enough to pay the price for not compromising. I think I can fix the tech landscape of the 21st century. Nothing is stopping me, I haven't reached the summit yet, but I'm already walking. Ask me again in 2030.

Wrong. Innovators that could change the world are prevented from doing anything because this world is ruled by devils, demons, pedophiles, and brutal dictators. They like things just as they are and true innovation will only threaten their hegemony

i am not smart or driven enough
people talk shit on these guys, and some of it is true, but the reality is they're absurdly driven and smart. if put in the same circumstances, most people would not come remotely close to their achievements

The best times of my life where when I was objectively a rotten and evil person. I have experienced things that some would describe in fantasy.
At some point I learned my lesson, how not to treat people. And my own life has done a total 180. I went from being a big shot with unlimited money to suffering regularly.
I've learned that the good are not rewarded, and the evil are. But I've also been forced by my own experience to have empathy. I learned it the hard way, and can not unlearn it.
In my mind, I know the answer is to be evil, but I can't bring myself to step on people and destroy in swaths like I used to. No matter how bad my life has become I can't do it like that anymore. Instead I question if there isn't some way for good to prevail, for us to unify and mutually benefit each other instead of everything being based on exploiting someone else.
The biggest problem with this is that a lot of these are antithetical or at odds.
For example, we can probably agree that the world would be better without proprietary software and legal licensing bullshit. But these evil things are what gain power, while things like open source development are almost inherently a suicide trap. Work for free, to distribute a better product, dismantle the need for Facebook while you starve and Zuck relaxes on his island bunker.
Is it possible to actually add value to the world and be successful while doing it. I hope so.

you are the lazy one, dependent on "employees" to work for you. i run my own business with kust my wife and we each put in 90 hours a week minimum. Thats just what you do when you have a goal in mind. You just arent CEO material apparently, thats okay, theres a place for scrubs like you

I'm not a hedge fund kid or a guy whose parents paid for Harvard.
Basically every successful entrepreneurship these days revolves around some online service grift which maximizes the potential to scam normies.
I don't have the mindset for that. If I had my way I'd erase internet and keep it academic only or find a way to make advertising and data brokering globally illegal.
