I don’t buy into “you should have a cofounder”
I think investors are just hedging their bets on the team
Actively finding a cofounder seems odd and forced to tick a box ✅
If you (potentially) have one, great!
💰Pay amazing folks (contract/FTE/PTE)
One pro is to share the burden with someone who cares as much about the business as you do.
Going looking for a cofounder (whether you’re pressured to or not) seems like a disaster
