Agreed. Maybe I didn't make my self clear. I'm saying that we have example of successful startups under any condition imaginable.

I never said it was easy or that *chances are on your side, if this [...] and that [...]. If that was the case everyone would be building Apple-like companies from their garages but we have only one, Apple.

You said people who put in the effort always find a way to succeed.

Yeah, but I never used the word succeed, I was thinking about myself and would rather use the word complete (the project - as in LAUNCH/RUN the side-project). Not that it matters anyway...
