And, if you are in the US: Does your spouse have health insurance and a salary that can help support the family? Do you have kids in high school getting ready to start college (runs about $30k-80k per year living on campus)?

FT job or consulting are potential solutions to the income problem. No shame in doing either, despite what VC crowd might say.
