What would be one piece of advice to keep in one's head for a young, aspiring entrepreneur/dev?

When someone online tells you they made millions, you have no obligation to believe them.

Best advice in this entire comment thread. Everyone on HN makes $2M/yr, has a vacation home in Tahoe and drives three Ferraris.

I like to err and still see what people have to say. Thanks for the reminder, i'll watch out!

Ha, no worries, I was mainly being cheeky.

Don't go looking for ideas. Either build for yourself or build for the obvious market gap in your industry. Anything else has a high failure rate.

Solid advice, I'm doing that, building the thing at the moment. Any thoughts on marketing and getting those first few clients?

Have a plan B.
