Vinay Hiremath Struggles for Life Purpose After Selling a $975 Million Company

Vinay Hiremath, the Indian-origin co-founder of Loom who sold his company to Atlassian for $975 million in 2023, recently shared his reflections on dealing with the sudden wealth and a lack of direction in life.

In a candid blog post, Hiremath explores his ongoing quest to find meaning beyond corporate success.

In his blog, “I am rich, and I have no idea what to do with my life,” Hiremath discusses the existential challenges he faced after his financial windfall. He describes his life as a “haze” in which traditional motivators like money and status no longer drive him, stating, “Everything feels like a side quest, but not in an inspiring way.”

I am rich and have no idea what to do with my life.

Where I talk about leaving Loom, giving up $60m, larping as Elon, breaking up with my girlfriend, insecurities, a brief stint at DOGE, and how I'm now in Hawaii self-studying physics.https://t.co/cMgAsXq3St

Hiremath recounts the significant life decisions he’s faced since the sale of Loom. He discusses ending a two-year relationship with his girlfriend, a breakup he describes as “extremely painful” but necessary due to personal insecurities. His writing showcases his vulnerability by offering a heartfelt apology to her.

The tech entrepreneur also shares insights into his professional life post-Loom. Despite being offered a lucrative $60 million package to stay on as CTO, Hiremath felt compelled to leave and seek a new purpose, leading him to spend time alone in the redwoods to clear his mind.

After leaving Loom, Hiremath flirted with various interests, from meeting with investors and robotics experts to an impulsive trek in the Himalayas that ended in physical and mental distress. His brief stint at DOGE under Elon Musk and Vivek Ramaswamy further convinced him that he needed to forge his path.

Currently, Hiremath is in Hawaii, dedicating himself to studying physics to launch a company focused on manufacturing tangible products. He expresses newfound contentment with pursuing a venture that may not replicate Loom’s monumental success but fulfils him personally.
