[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Interesting that nobody dislikes being a entrepreneur and starting a business. I always avoided due to the high failure rate, uncertainty, and time commitment at least early on.[/quote] Both my spouse and I are the children of small business owners, and that put us right off doing it ourselves. It's often very hard work 24/7/365, and you're doing everything - business generation, operations, financials, hiring/HR, etc. (In both our cases, too, it was a family industry and we were child labor for our entire lives - at least I got paid sometimes, my spouse never did.) We're both perfectly happy to have someone else compensate us for our time/efforts and handle the details. Probably depends on what the business venture is, too. I'd imagine a white-collar consulting business is going to be a lot different.[/quote]
