Most Important Lifestyle Habits Of Successful Founders

Y Combinator Startup Podcast

ADVICE

Founder Salary

  • Founders should pay themselves enough to avoid debt and stay motivated, but not so much that it depletes company funds.
  • A small salary increase can make a big difference in lifestyle and thus motivation.
  • While saving is important, founders shouldn't aim for typical high-salary savings rates, but rather focus on what allows them to be all-in on their startup.
  • Individual needs vary, so there's no one-size-fits-all answer or formula.
  • Founders should develop their own compensation philosophy.
