I talk a mean game on here quite a bit about business and owning one and such. But, honestly? I would not have the stomach for that sort of wild and crazy ride.
In business there is risk, and this dude gambled and went up, way up. Now, the bottom is coming out for him and he’s coming down. The going up part is great. It’s that coming down stuff that really sucks. I’d lose it, if I lost that big after having so much and then losing it all.
Obviously somewhere along the line, this guy did not heed a sign that things were flying apart on him. He’ll pay a price for that, if he doesn’t go mad first.
Again, owning a business is great. But, not losing ones soul and mind; and not ending up bankrupt and broke in the process of owning one — is even better.
