Meet the Attorney Who Coded His Way Out of $250K in Student Loan Debt

Nick Fogle went from being an attorney drowning in student loan debt to teaching himself to code, building a successful SaaS business, and ultimately getting acquired for a mid-7 figure sum in 2021.

‌After graduating with a job and a deep recession in 2008, He made a bad situation worse by taking out student loans and going to law school.

‌He graduated and became an attorney, but he realized he couldn’t pay the debt on an attorney’s salary.

‌Desperate to get out from under the mountain of debt, he decided the best way to pay it off was to start his own company.

‌Nick couldn’t find a technical co-founder to help with the startup idea, so he drove a shuttle bus for minimum wage while teaching himself to code. Then, Nick worked my way up the ranks from lowly intern to lead engineer at a publicly traded software company.

‌For five years, he spent every night and weekend and even used his PTO to work on his startup, Wavve. In 2020, he could finally pay off his student loan debt and leave his day job.

‌After selling Wavve for a mid-7-figure sum in 2021, he took everything he’d learned about retention and turned it into a new business, Churnkey.
