Full on Business

January disappeared. Feels like I blinked and it was over.

The big things:

  • I successfully completed dry January. Lucky for me, my friend Tamas was doing the same, so we happily drank alcohol-free beer together.
  • We’re starting a new chapter with my dad.
  • At NBK Labs, Raphael (our lead developer) and we went separate ways, so I jumped into a much bigger frontend role.
  • I started a CSS and React refresh at the beginning of January. Still in it. Still enjoying it.
  • We took a week of half work and half holiday with my family and went skiing in the Austrian Alps. Ice cold but amazing.
  • We got a painful letter from FINMA and had to rebrand from nobank to something new (coming soon).
  • We got our first month where we were cashflow neutral.

The next stretch is a simple focus for me and the company:

  • Sell more and keep us in the green.
  • Keep the dry January momentum and not slide back.
  • Finish the CSS and React brush-up.
