Ask HN: Displaced in Maui, working on a 'crazy idea'. Any words of wisdom?
1 point by rblion 1 year ago | 1 commentMaui is way too reliant on tourism. I believe we could support a startup ecosystem here that spans agriculture, finance, tourism, real estate, and wellness.
Why couldn't it? Does anyone have any better ideas?
- smoldesu 1 year agoJust seems like more trouble than it's worth. You're disconnected from the contiguous 48 states logistically and physically, located in a unique timezone and isolated from massive talent pools. I don't think the advantages of being on an island will necessarily sweeten the deal, but then again I've never been to Maui.
