built apps people paid for

Miami, FL
my second app, cleaneats, just got acquired 😭 two years ago, i was in nigeria — broke, stuck in my 3rd gap year, and completely cooked. most of my family gave up on me. at 20, i made it to the US through sheer will, desperate to turn my life around. i slept on a friend’s college floor and bounced from relative to relative — until one called the cops and kicked me out. i hit rock bottom but i never stopped today i’m 22. since landing in america: > solo built social wizard ($800k+ rev, still printing) > went from tourist → student → “extraordinary alien” > had my second app acquired > made lifelong friends i’m now in sf building the next one. my life goal is to build something 100 million people use — and i think i know what that is we’re just getting started 🚀

one of the worst habits you can develop is asking for advice too early every problem you figure out yourself builds judgment
