I have two friends who own hackers houses in the bay area (which to me is kinda the short end of the stick but w/e), and I've considered moving into one to save money and work on my dream company- but the likelihood of me saving money is not really ideal. I'd still be paying rent, except to live in an uncomfortable bunk bed next to a bunch of folks I don't know.
A friend of mine pitched the idea to start a live/work space. Basically hire people to stay in my flat for free, and code on the project of my dreams.
Would you do this? Move into a flat w your mates who all work on the same project together, for free rent and a limited salary? thoughts?
I think it could work but for a limited amount of time.
