One thing I have noticed about a lot of the most successful entrepreneurs is that they all have a stable home to fall back on. If the worst thing that can happen to you financially is going bankrupt and living with the parents, I think it instils a certain confidence in you. It is a level of confidence that someone who has to support their parents or siblings cannot afford. The entrepreneurs I am thinking of range from close friends up to Branson, Gates, Jobs et al. All of these guys have come from good homes. I feel lucky to have a safe base to fall back on if it all goes to shit. Thanks mum. Thanks dad.
