Will Simon lost a fortune in the FTX collapse, walked away from crypto, and rebuilt using vibe coding.
CFO by day, vibe coder by necessity. Will built a full internal CRM for his payroll company using Lovable—no coding background, just frustration with manual processes and limited dev resources. We dig into his chat mode strategy, why he sees AI having bigger impact than crypto, and his plan to automate every manual payment by next year.
Key topics
- Building production tools without developers: from margin calculators to DocuSign clones
- Strategic prompting: using chat mode to optimize before implementing

Takeaways

- Security matters from day one: even Lovable’s built-in review got a B+ from Will’s database engineer with minimal tweaks
- AI creates jobs, not just kills them: new skills for everyone from founders to entry-level, not replacement
