There are more and more BIGbins landing in Irish towns and cities every quarter and it’s great to see people using technology to deal with their waste problems. You can bring your rubbish to a BIGbin whenever you want and either use your online credit, tap a card or buy a ticket

I was scared to start a business. Leaving a safe job seemed insane. It took: -6 mo: to triple previous salary -3 yrs to lose just as much -4 yrs to find a stride -5 yrs for continual profitability 11 years later, it’s the best decision I ever made. I built a business. 💪🏽

This is a good article by @FinnMurphy12 . Its important to get balance in your working life as your business won't always be a startup. Plan for a marathon and not a sprint.
An IPO may make you rich, but will it make you happy? Column from @FinnMurphy12 on the insanity of 130 hour weeks and not pushing yourself too hard in tech. https://t.co/wS5lAalsVr
