These guys were literally the perfect example of the mythical "starving entrepreneurs" who walk into your office with a brilliant idea. I had to make sure they could eat! :)

The treehouse in the bg is a nice touch.

I just did five minutes ago, and the invoice was paid two minutes ago, so you clearly can. Perhaps you mean you can't become an employee of one?

Do you live in the US?

No.

As a fellow EU citizen, I'm interested in this. Could you elaborate? Are you able to found or work at a start up in the U.S. with only a temporary visa?

You can't do that with temporary visa. That's why I have my awesome co-founder James Halliday, who's US citizen. :)

Thanks for the reply. So I guess the plan is at some point to get a work visa with the help of your own company. Best of luck for your endeavours!
