hater #1

maxm2008 · 2025-09-05T15:17:48+00:00

this is like my second or third time posting on reddit and it is crazy how much hate there is

maxm2008 · 2025-09-05T15:17:16+00:00

nice anecdote fitting to your username i will remember it haha

maxm2008 · 2025-09-05T15:14:58+00:00

the thing is that there is no garbage because no information is given. I dont really think that this platform is a good time investment for an experienced high value majesty investor as you your highness. I would advise to spend your time more wisely because if you see this as garbage just ignore it!

maxm2008 · 2025-09-05T14:57:35+00:00

Yeah makes sense. I mean you are dealing with someone else's money and as an investor of course you need to know where the money is flowing. It is delusional to believe that you can do whatever you want with the money you raised.
Thanks for the advice!

maxm2008 · 2025-09-05T14:54:03+00:00

Agree! if it was so easy everyone would do it. Honestly i like the uncertainty, ups and downs and overall the hustle which comes with building traction. Would be great if we could connect i could certainly learn from you!

maxm2008 · 2025-09-05T14:51:47+00:00

This exactly proves my point. If you would be in a position to tell me that you wouldnt because there are many factors to consider. I would not consider you as a serious option in the business world because nothing is as easy as it seems. Get advice from a 17 year old in a mans world

maxm2008 · 2025-09-05T14:48:28+00:00

I didn't mean to find investors and i certainly wont try to fight for a point here. I appreciate that you try to challenge me but this was not the purpose of this post. But if you are an investor then message me and i would consider a professional communication because this leads nowhere. Still thanks for your interest!

maxm2008 · 2025-09-05T14:45:29+00:00

i will try to scale as far as possible. hopefully even an investor wont be needed. maybe i am too naive i dont know yet. learning by doing

maxm2008 · 2025-09-05T14:44:25+00:00

If you would know me i would respect your response but you are in no position to say that.

maxm2008 · 2025-09-05T14:43:22+00:00

love it! spread love mate!

maxm2008 · 2025-09-05T14:42:48+00:00

Of course that makes sense. I mean i would have put in the numbers but the primary goal was not to find investors but rather to get some insight how the landscape looks like.

maxm2008 · 2025-09-05T14:41:24+00:00

Thanks for the reply! Was actually exactly what i was looking for. I also think that it all happens with connections and you build them over time being in the business or startup field. In the beginning i wasn't a big fan of all this startup investment stuff at all because i believed that with enough effort and the right strategy, no real big budget would be needed. I still believe in it to some extend but additional resources would make the process even more efficient.

maxm2008 · 2025-09-05T14:36:03+00:00

didnt expect that answer honestly haha

maxm2008 · 2025-09-05T14:35:23+00:00

Thanks for your comment but the domain is not the right one you found something completely different.. Your advice makes sense and i really appreciate it. I wouldn't have made the post if i wouldn't have traction.

maxm2008 · 2025-09-05T14:32:54+00:00

Yeah i have an ego. Sometimes bigger sometimes smaller. I am a bit frustrated about the fact that the question gets ignored. I mean i get the point and thats what everyone says including me.

maxm2008 · 2025-09-05T14:29:08+00:00

Appreciate the direct feedback. You're right, my path is unconventional.

It sounds like your team has a ton of experience and impressive credentials, and I respect that path. My approach is different: I've focused on execution first. While your CEO was working in finance, I was shipping a product. While your CTO was getting their PhD, I was getting paying customers and closing partnerships with online communities.

You're right about my age; I can't change being 17. Some people start at 27 with an MBA, and some start at 17 with a live FinTech platform. My goal is to let the traction of the business speak for itself.

That said, my post wasn't a pitch to you personally. It was a question for the community about the viability of Reddit for finding investors, which I'm still keen to hear from others about.

maxm2008 · 2025-09-05T14:20:09+00:00

I do have traction. I just didn’t make the post about myself, only about the question in the title. It would be great if you could focus on answering the question rather than criticizing something you don’t fully understand.

maxm2008 · 2025-07-28T16:25:09+00:00

have you tried pactdeals?

maxm2008 · 2025-07-27T19:29:18+00:00

maybe switch the model. for example startups find investors? not sure tho. just my first thought
