Voices From The Real World II

From Mexico City we hear the voice of a bootstrapped, tech startup founder and author who has been running his SaaS business from all over the world — for more than a year — including a recent stint in Vietnam, Columbia, and, now, Mexico City.

He was to return to the USA, but nixed it when the Wutang Flu hit and his target destination, New York City, closed down for business.

He was forced to cancel four months of travel, but was able to get refunds for most of his flight and AirBnB expenditures.

” . . . . . our numbers (SaaS revenue) are already taking a beating, but I don’t think I have to lay anyone off . . . . . ”

He expresses a longing to maintain “day-to-day freedoms” such as restaurants and gym visits. He is prepared to stay in Mexico and South American until this blows over.

He says locally in Mexico City things are more chill as the locals are not yet impacted.

That is the voice from Mexico City. Stay tuned.car
