It only makes it slightly better if it's your company, but even if it's your own company something out of your control can fuck it up. We often forget that you can get kicked out of your own company. Apple, Cisco, etc. I once did an amazing startup that was working in the online pokern space, we were making good money and everyone loved what we were doing. Congress fucked that up!

The world is full of uncertainty, and the grass isn't that much greener with your own company, if it is even greener at all.
