I think the most important thing is to figure out why you need a cofounder. Too often people just bring others on board to give them confidence that they are no longer in it by themselves even though their co-founder doesn't bring nearly the same to the table

For both of my startups that I run together with co-founders, they found me through Co-Founders Lab. I didn’t pay anything either.

Back in November I handed in my notice at my last consulting gig, and I’ve just been working on my startups since.
