Maybe but as I know from my father’s businesses unexpected risks are hard to hedge (currency impacts from trading partners, interest rate changes, theft, lawsuits, etc). Again — risk / reward. Being an employee at a corporation offers severance cushion and more visibility.
I agree. Which brings us back to the original tweet: taking a risk means you have privledge. I say nonsense. Maybe u do maybe u dont. But if you don’t do it, it’s because you’re not bold. And your idea is that even if u are bold, maybe still don’t. I also agree.

The illusion of how easy it is bc people see big tech wins is absolutely a mirage. Very few people should build software companies.

Most people starting big things have Ivy League lives & connections either directly or indirectly. Many people with services or lower growth businesses do it bc they have to (immigrants / lack connections). I think we generally agree. Sometimes nuance is smothered by tweets.
