According to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics, roughly 66% of businesses fail within 10 years. If this makes you wonder whether starting a business is worth it or not, I don’t blame you.

Not only is starting a business risky business, but it’s tough to manage with everything else going on in life (like a pandemic).

It’s stressful paying the bills while your side-business doesn’t pay you. Especially in the early years, there’s no guarantee your business will pay off in the end.

I’m here to present a question: why start a business in the first place?

Well, it’s kind of fun, isn’t it? Walk into a room and talk about your business, and you’ll be the most interesting person in that room.

Actually, let’s back that up. Hopefully, you aren’t in a room full of strangers. Let’s say you’re at a socially distanced gathering, and through your mask, you mutter that you have a side-hustle.

It doesn’t matter what kind it is, but having a business is sexy. It’s something to strive for. It’s a respectable endeavor to pursue while making ends meet at a regular day job.
