Why I started my own bootstrapped business

Hey guys !

After passively consuming your content in the past 1.5 years, I decided it's time for me to introduce myself :)

I am Tom Zach, a software engineer in the past 12 years, I've been building 2 indie projects in the past few months which I still prefer to keep private, but very soon I'll join the build in public movement.

I have generally been very private about everything in my life so far, and have decided to change that - so I wrote a blog post about why I decided to start my own bootstrapped business. hope you find it at least as interesting as I find being a member of this community :)

Thanks for everything!
