Hi HN! OP here. Been working on my product, Lunch Money (https://lunchmoney.app), full-time since I launched it roughly 10 months ago. Sharing my learnings and thoughts along the way as it can be pretty lonely and daunting as a solo founder out there. Let me know if you have any questions and thanks for reading!

Hi Jen, great post! As you continue to grow Lunch Money even further, have you thought about when will it make sense to bring outside help, and if so, will this be hiring our outsourcing to freelance?

Hey, thanks! Honestly my thinking right now is that I want to continue growing Lunch Money on my own up until a certain ARR- I feel there's no reason to think I can't at this point. Past that, I may start to think about hiring outside help though I have no idea what that would look like. It would also heavily depend on where I'm at in my personal life as well!
