Super Founders uses a data-driven approach to understand what really differentiates billion-dollar startups from the rest—revealing that nearly everything we thought was true about them is false! Ali Tamaseb has spent thousands of hours manually amassing what may be the largest dataset ever collected on startups, comparing billion-dollar startups with those that failed to become one—30,000 data points on nearly every factor: number of competitors, market size, the founder’s age, his or her university’s ranking, quality of investors, fundraising time, and many, many more. And what he found looked far different than expected. Just to mention a few: Most unicorn founders had no industry experience; There's no disadvantage to being a solo founder or to being a non-technical CEO; Less than 15% went through any kind of accelerator program; Over half had strong competitors when starting--being first to market with an idea does not actually matter. You will also hear the stories of the early days of billion-dollar startups first-hand. The book includes exclusive interviews with the founders/investors of Zoom, Instacart, PayPal, Nest, Github, Flatiron Health, Kite Pharma, Facebook, Stripe, Airbnb, YouTube, LinkedIn, Lyft, DoorDash, Coinbase, and Square, venture capital investors like Elad Gil, Peter Thiel, Alfred Lin from Sequoia Capital and Keith Rabois of Founders Fund, as well as previously untold stories about the early days of ByteDance (TikTok), WhatsApp, Dropbox, Discord, DiDi, Flipkart, Instagram, Careem, Peloton, and SpaceX. Packed with counterintuitive insights and inside stories from people who have built massively successful companies, Super Founders is a paradigm-shifting and actionable guide for entrepreneurs, investors, and anyone interested in what makes a startup successful.

INTRODUCTION Becoming a millionaire has never been easier. You can get rich at any age in any business despite your race and location. And when I say rich, I mean RICH. Really fucking rich. For example, a 21-year-old named Alex Tew built a website with the intent of selling one million pixels at one dollar per pixel to produce a million dollars in income. It took him just four months to do. A million bucks for nothing! Because a million people were willing to spend a dollar. Magical right? Just imagine if you got $1 from four billion people. Or imagine the money your website could earn using the internet to sell something people actually want and need! BUSINESS IN THE DIGITAL AGE Some refer to the times we live in as Industry 4.0, the age of the internet. But whether you’re online or not, business is about building wealth. That hasn’t changed. To build wealth, you must go into business for yourself as an owner, freelancer, commission-only salesperson, stockbroker, mortgage broker, or investment banker—something that offers the opportunity for uncapped earning potential. Spencer Williams wrote The Online Millionaire with this in mind, and he provides a way to leverage the immense wealth potential of the internet. "I’ve witnessed the spectacular results online businesses can bring people, and now I want to share the steps to make it possible for you, as well." - Spencer Williams Welcome to the digital age!
