When I attempted a few times to found startups, my wife was willing to support me financially if any of them were to become profitable enough over a certain agreed-upon threshold that we felt justified in quitting my job and taking the plunge to go full time.

Not sure if that was the best strategy, but it seemed like a decent one at the time. I suppose if I were single, maybe the decision to just quit and go full time would have been easier despite not having such a safety net.

It's tough when more than my own life is being affected by such decisions. I feel for the author and her husband. Who knows if my own marriage would have ended up in similar struggles if I had gone all in. I do feel like I'm probably making more money in the long run by just remaining an employee.
