I think the assumption is that your startup is controlled by you, but other startups are potentially controlled by people prone to failure. The odds for your own startup -should- be better than others.

Of course, if you're prone to failure, the reverse is true... But if you know you're prone to failure, why would you try something as risky as a startup in the first place?
