It's crazy that a series d exit would net a founder 7 million and yet my bootstrapped business returned a 4 million profit for me last tax year.

I think people need to learn more about how to scale a bootstrapped business. Even when I was getting started, I read a ton on VC funded businesses but not a lot on non VC funded businesses.

I think there is tremendous amount of money to be made in bootstrapping as well. I think a lot of indie hackers / bootstrappers also think too small.

You can definitely make 100s of millions of dollars without VC money. That part of reality has not been properly dispersed.
