it probably doesn't and a business venture is a means to an end. I always thought the idea of 'doing startups' is kind of silly. Business as a recreational lifestyle produces mediocre entrepreneurship and probably stuff nobody needs.

there's nothing wrong with getting a job somewhere and working on something interesting that needs fixing, there's enough of it to go around.

Yes, I agree on business not being a recreational pursuit. I definitely am missing the drive now.

I also agree that there’s nothing wrong with getting a job. I think it’s more about coming to terms with not being good at entrepreneurship.
