You can always lose your own life, pretty much. If you can go back to your old room at your parent&#x27;s room while you find a job and start earning again, sure, it&#x27;s easy to take risks (I&#x27;ve done it this way).<p>On the other hand, if you come from a rather poor background and have no one to fall back on, finding yourself with a failed company, in debt, maybe kicked out of your place because you can&#x27;t pay rent, I&#x27;d say that rather terrifying.<p>I&#x27;m all for entrepreneurship, but if failing means living in the street, then let&#x27;s just not start a company for now.
