    Why is everyone pointing out the obvious? 😂 Ofc, a person who has no coding experience or any skill whatsoever can make an app in 5 hours then end up making 1M.
    Take this story as an inspiration. You don’t know how to code? Then start learning! Don’t know anything about opening a business? Then go learn! Don’t know what problem to solve? Go look for problems.
    I am 2.8yrs in my career as a software engineer and I have finally found a problem to solve 🙏🏽 perhaps, I will one day be in one of these videos 🤘🏽
    Great work Pat!

    Absolutely inspiring to see Dawson's journey from 9-5 to a $1M app. For entrepreneurs looking to emulate his success, remember the importance of validating your app idea with potential users before diving into development; it can save you months of work and significantly increase your chances of success. Focus on solving a real problem and the revenue will follow.

      But it only took him 5 hours to code. Moral of the story isn't "get rich in 5 hours". The moral of the story is with the proper tools, anyone can build a high profit startup.
      Spend a few months learning to code, then spend time building something to solve a problem you can moentize.

    • @BreeZyHDOfficial

As a first-time viewer, when I see that on any startup or finance side of RUclips, it makes me rethink their advice. However, your channel is more like short podcasts or stories, so all the advice has been good. Even if it wasn’t, you’re just sharing the person’s story.
