The economy is bad, everything is expensive, and there is absolutely no social climate for emigrating within EU. That would be scenario equal to having my country invaded, or getting cancer, so death rather than thinking about opening a business. AI is only a topic in huge enterprises, I have yet to see anyone starting from zero and earning any money with it. There is lots of money incoming to real estate, physical gold, football, and freak show fights, so if you don't mind being predatory asshole and dealing with organized crime there is potential money stream to tap into.

I think economic decline is regularly considered the best time to start a new business?

Good time to find people to hire and work hard to prepare for better times.

Isn't this a whole concept of a crisis? You expected to buy half of a country and hire another half, but instead you're among those who are struggling.
wait until your first full bankrupt failure before confirming; extra credit, add a financial disaster divorce
Yeah easy to say of course. I am sorry for your troubles.
If everything is expensive, can it be possible to start a new company that will make some things cheaper?
