I posted a random thread on X about the cost of living in the Netherlands. Nothing about what we're building. Just genuine thoughts about life in the Netherlands.

It hit 1M+ impressions. And here's the weird part we got a ton of signups and paid users for Starnus from it. Without ever mentioning the product.

Meanwhile, my "here's what Starnus does" posts? Way less engagement.

This genuinely messed with my head. I'm sharing the actual X post below

What would you tell a founder who just got their incorporation docs and opened a bank account?

Were you able to build and monetize the product?

Please avoid answering the question if -

• You've built just another Product Hunt Spinoff or any other directory.

• You're monetizing by selling prototypes just like agencies.

• Any other kind of business where you are charged to display ads.

It'll be good to see if people could monetize a real SaaS product that they vibe coded.

I ve been fairly active on Twitter and have come across several founders and creators who hold very different views when it comes to having a family.

The opinions vary, and I really appreciate that people are open about discussing it.

I had founded a company in 2017 in Seoul, launched a captable management software (just like Carta but the software complies with domestic capital laws) and sold it in 2022.
And after having quite a long rest, I just joined a startup that is building an AI powered web builder. The market is hyper competitive, but I am really excited and impressed by all the cool stuff that is being developed in the space. Nice to meet you all!
