Business – Project Idealism: Lance Walley of Chargify

ByReid Walley

Andrew Wicklander’s interview with my brother, Lance.

Project Idealism: Podcast Episode #10: Lance Walley of Chargify, Engine Yard, Parallax and more

In my latest podcast episode I interviewed Lance Walley, who has been building businesses for over 20 years. Most recently Lance co-founded Chargify – a recurring billing system, and before that EngineYard – a Rails application hosting company.

Lance spoke candidly with me about launching new ideas, scaling a business, failure, success, investing, and more. It was great talking with him and he shared a ton of great information. You can follow Lance on Twitter at @lancewalley.

How do you think for yourself?

ByReid Walley

My grandpa Ted once told my brother Lance not to get too excited about computers because he didn’t think anything would come of them.

Boy, was grandpa wrong!

How do you persist under the watchful eye of parents, grandparents, teachers, and other “adults” in your life? – when they can clearly be wrong. How do you follow your passion and instincts when it’s sometimes an uphill battle against the “wisdom” of your family, friends and well educated people?
