Ask HN: Mastermind group for 9-5'ers looking to escape

Would there be any interest on HN in creating a private mastermind group?

I work a 9-5, and would like to completely replace my income with a product, or a product + consulting, before I make a clean break. I think a weekly no bullshit chat session may be beneficial. If you are interested and

- have a 9-5 in the software industry - want to create something that will allow you to work for yourself - have an hour a week to chat - think this would be beneficial

shoot me an email anthony@makerops.com (Tell me a little about yourself, what timezone you are in and your availability) ; I'll see what comes in, organize everything etc

I've owned a business, and Ive worked 9-5s, it's not an odd demographic at all, unless you buy into the macho bullshit about sleeping at your desk etc, by 20 year olds, who have never made a dollar themselves.

They worked remotely (and still do) and have found success.

The only problem with your idea and the rest of the bootstrapped remote successful companies is that they were addressing a real customer need/problem and you are simply trying to address your situation of hating your 9-5.

Come up with a great idea, open your world to devs from everywhere, work your ass off initially and then build the company in a way in which that 9-5 doesn't feel like work anymore and can be done at 10-6 or 8-12 + 2-6.
