you are risking your career and monetary stability, at your 20s too, if you start a company and fail, you risk going homeless and having a huge gap on your cv.
And there's no gap on your CV. You put down "Worked on launching x startup from X date to Y date. It sold, folded, whatever and I'm looking for a job now."
Thank you in advance if you can come up with a cite.
Not sure the difference anymore of working for the man and losing your job or doing a startup and failing.
