From Homeless to YC Interview in less than a year

Although that seems a bit reckless: only having 3 months runway; good job executing and sticking to it. I&#x27;m impressed you didn&#x27;t just find another job once you had your injury.<p>I wanted to also mention, only a fraction (I don&#x27;t know the exact fraction) of YC teams invited for interviews get funded. I hope you keep your work ethic up, I&#x27;m sure regardless of funding you&#x27;ll be successful, if not this venture then the next.
