Decided to start Documenting again — The Road to YTB

Wow, it’s been so long , I haven't documented my journey in a while. I think this time around we are on to building something that is big and would change the landscape of personal finance. Every week I would document our wins and challenges . Per adventure a young founder may find it useful. My current project is YTB. A borderless banking app for every one across the globe. I am a very meticulous person and finding the right technical cofounder has taken me a lot of time. I have had so many people approach me but I am trying to find the right fit. I believe this approach of me taking my time on this is simply because I understand how enormous the task ahead of us is. After over 5 years. I think I finally got the right fit for our start up OS. I have known OS for over a long period. He is a very trust worthy executioner and I am happy to be bringing him on board as the CTO. OS is smart, meticulous and a subject matter expert in Fintech. He has built and exited two start ups and I am confident that with him by my side we can deliver what is is needed for YTB. My major struggle this week as a founder was decision making about my CTO. and finishing off the paper work from the Pay360 Conference. I gained a lot at the conference and really met amazing people who I intend to work with in future.
